Why families with several cars find that it’s the Ford that’s always in demand. Why over 2,500,000 Americans have become V-8 fans in the past four years.

Here, too, you'll find the comfort of a 123” springbase—actually 11 inches Jonger than the wheelbase. You'll enjoy the protection of a steel body, new Super-Safety brakes, safety glass throughout. And you'll be delighted with the proved overall economy of a car that is built to the Ford ideal of giving the utmost for every dollar you spend. We urge you to drive this new Ford V-8 now. We say sincerely that no one should buy any car at any price without first having this experience.
