Only a six cylinder engine that has every modern engine
development can offer so many advantages to all your driving;
And that’s why, every day, more and more Six buyers are joining
the swing to America’s most modern Six ; ; : the NEW 115-h.p. OVERHEAD-VALVE I-block SIX!
Go-power through the whole range
of driving speeds. \
Ford’s I-block Six gives you extra "get-going” power
at high speeds—as well as low and average speeds.
This gets you past trucks in a hurry . . . gives you
safety fast. One reason for this is the four-port intake
manifold for efficient gas-feeding to all cylinders, j
Deep-block design
keeps it smooth and quiet.
This deep, l-shaped block, like an "I” beam used in
construction, gives you a more rigid engine. This
means greater quiet and freedom from vibration
which, in turn adds to engine life. Another smooth-
operation feature is a crankshaft with four bearings.
More “Go” per gallon with low-friction \
design . . . Automatic Power Pilot.
Ford’s low-friction design means an extra-short piston
stroke—so piston travel is greatly reduced for less
gas-wasting, power-wasting friction than in conven
tional engines. Automatic Power Pilot squeezes more
high-compression "Go” from less gas.
AND YOU GET ALL THE FEATURES
THAT MAKE A FINE CAR FINE!
For the first time ever in a low-priced
car. Ford offers you new Ball-Joint
Front Suspension. This revolutionary
new chassis development helps give
you a smoother ride without gas-eating
extra weight. And it keeps handling
consistently easy. Ford also brings you
new styling inside and out. Interiors
are of the most modern design with the
last word in upholsteries and trim.
Exteriors are more beautiful than ever
. . . with many new baked-on colors to
choose from. And Ford also offers five
fine-car driver aids as optional “extras”:
Fordomatic Drive, Master-Guide Power
Steering, Swift Sure Power Brakes, 4-
Way Power Front Seat, Power-Lift
