NEW MEBCUBY 8 13 ANNOmai
BY MOD MOTOR COMPANY
The newest car in motordom —
the Mercury 8— was announced last
week by the Ford Motor Company as
its representative in the lower med-
ium price field. It fills a place in the
Ford-Lincoln line between the De-
luxe Ford V-8 and the Lincoln-Zep
hyr.
The Mercury 8 is a big car. It
measures lore than 16 feet from
bumper to bumper. Its wheelbase is
116 inches. It is a powerful car, able
to crawl smoothly or accelerate quick
ly in traffic, and with high road
•peed when desired. Its V-type 8-
cylinder engine develops 95 horse-
power. It is also an easy car to han-
dle. Hydraulic brakes enable the dri-
ver to slow down or stop quickly
with light pedal pressure.
In its modern streamlined styling rnile speedometer is formed in a long
the Mercury 8 bears a family resem-, arc corresponding to the curve of the
blance to the Lincoln-Zephyr, ack- j steering wheel. The speedometer and
widest at M«t tovpL Tin
roominess of the bodies and tho large
luggage space at the rear aro both
without excessive overhang, as a re-
sult of able designing.
A notable characteristic of the
Mercury 8 is the quietness of tha in-
teriors. With the windows closed pas-
sengers may concerse without raising
their voices even when the car is
travelling 70 miles an hour or more.
This effective sound insulation was
achieved as a result of many f*K Wtha'
tests on the road and in the labora-
tory.
Interior styling and choice of ap-
pointments are as distinctive as the
exterior beauty of the car. Typical
of this originality of design are the
instrument panel, the two-spoke
steering wheel and the steering col-
umn support. The instrument panel

be read easily. The dial of the 100-

nowledged style leader of the motor
world. Despite this resemblance the
new car has a distinct styling of its
own, both in flowing body contours
and in interior appointments.
Four body types are available on
the Mercury 8 chassis and there are
eight color options. The body types
are a town-sedan, a sedan, a sedan
coupe and a sport convertible. The
bodies are exceptionally roomy, com-
paring favorably with the Lincoln-
Zephyr.
All bodies are extra wide, seating
three persons comfortably in both
front and rear seats. The belt and
cowl lines are low, giving driver and
passengers wide visibility. Running
boards are narrow and the bodies are
gauges are in a group in front at the
driver. One of the guages is a new
battery condition indicator. j
New ideas in interior tailoring are'
al.-o carried out. A paneled ana pip-1
ing treatment is u ed. In the three!
closed cars upholstery is taupe-olor-!
ed broadcloth or bed lord cord. In the j
sport convertible, the seat cushions j
and backs are genuine hand-buffed 1
red leather. Gushions are exception-
ally deep and comfortable. The front
seat in all body types is adjustible.
Much of the new car's equipment
is in pairs. There are dual windshield
wipers, twin electric horns, two sun
visors and dual combination rear and
stop lights. The spare wheel is car-
ried upright against the front panel
of the luggage compartment.
Chassis frame is of full box section
from the X-member to both ends of
the side channels. Springs are of the
transverse cantilever design, with
four double-acting hydraulic shock
absorbers. Transmission is of blocker
type, preventing clashing in changing
between second and high.

Your Mileage Merchant would unblinkingly talk
this same good sense about saving your car's
battery and oil by changing now to
WINTER OIL-PLATING
•0081
[O BRASH "sounding off" by
Your Mileage Merchant, be*
cause he can easily be specific about
his patented Conoco Germ Processed
oil. It specifically OIL-PLATES your
engine for winter... no other oil does. And
winter OIL-PLATING specifically cuts down on
draggy "starts," battery exhaustion and oil extrava-
gance, {or these specific reasons:
The Germ Process adds in to this oil a patented
man-made substance that sets up a strong force of
attraction between Germ Processed oil and every
engine surface it touches. Even the upright surfaces.,
instantly attract and hold Germ Processed oil in the
form of lasting OIL-PLATING. This OIL-PLATING
can never drain down —any more than chrome
plating—during the longest, coldest parking. No
question then, about winter OIL-PLATING speeding
your starter from the first, because before you've
even got out your key, your engine is ready-lubri-
cated by slippy OIL-PLATING. Never letting loose,
OIL-PLATING can't shoot out of the but
remains a constant help to your oil-level—one of
the smartest reasons for changing to Your Mileage
Merchant's Conoco Germ'Processed oil Patented
—your one way to change to WINTER OIL-PLATING!
