SLRVING" 24 KEY ClTIfS OF THE SOUTHWEST
Us
Ford has pioneered in bringing the most
worth-while things to the most people . . . and more and mor
people are now buying Fords
or a i,ONG time, people have recognized
that Ford is the ‘‘Worth More” car. And
they have been expressing their preference
in a great and growing volume of purchases.
The reason is simple. More and more people
have found in Ford everything they want
and need. They have found that Ford olfers
exterior beauty that has set the trend for
the industry . . . interiors that are so colorful
and in such good taste that just sitting in
a Ford is fun.
If you’re in the market for on\i new car,
you’ll be missing something if you don’t
come in and value-check a Ford point by
point. And when you Test Drive a Ford and
find out what a brilliant performer it is, you’ll
really understand why Ford is America’s
Best Seller and America’s Best Buy.
In the first place: Ford offers the two most
modern engines in the entire industry: the
completely new 130-h.p. Y-block V-S and
the outstanding new 115-h.p. I-block Six.
As for comfort—Ford is the only car in its
field with Ball-Joint Front Suspension. This
amazing new principle provides a degree of
handling and riding ease that cannot be
equalled in any car without this new
suspension system.
Choice, too, is a department where Ford
excells. You'll find just exactly the car for
you among the 14 body styles and more
than 100 body color and upholstery combi
nations in Ford’s three great lines.
And consider these facts, too. Ford is a com-
pletely modern car. The advanced fine-car
features that make it “Worth More” when
you buy it, will also make it “Worth More”
to someone else when you sell it.
Why not accept our invitation to Test Drive
a ’54 Ford. We believe that you’ve never
driven a car in Ford’s field that is in any
way comparable.
