THE XZ-MiLLMOIVTU
F OR
HAS JUST
BEEN
BUILT
It HAP never occurred Iwfore in auto-
mobile history that 2.'» million cars of
one make, bearing one name, havn
been manufartured under one man-
agement. The 2VW),<IOOtli Ford car
rolled off the Ford Rnugr Plant pro-
duction line on January IB, 1937.
25 nnllmri car* since 1903 . . , more
than oro-third id all the car* ever
built ... enough car* to Iranspmt the
entire population of the United States.
The figure* represent a remarkable
contribution to ibr social welfare, the
industrial stability and the general
progress of our country. —-
People respect Ford efficiency. They
know Ford use* fine materials, the
best workmanship at good wages, the
They know these things are passed
•long to purchasers in the form of
extra value. Naturally, they like to
do business with such a company.
That is the only reason it has been
required to produce 2S million cars.
Naturally, too, they expert
more of a Ford car, more this
ea« h year than the year before. They
have every right to. The experience
gained in building 23,0(IOjOOO cars en-
ables Ford to produce today a really
•uperil motor car at a really low price
— with the llrauty, Comfort. Safety
and Performance of much more ex-
pensive car*. j
The 1937 Ford V-fl combines ad-
vanced design, all-steel construction,
extra body room, and brilliant brake*
with a choice of two V-type 8-eyltn-
drr engines — the most modern typo
of power-plant on land, sea, or in
the air.
The 8'ehorsrpowrr engine provide*
top performance with nnusdally good
economy for it* high power.
The 60-horsepower rnglno glvaa
good performance with the greatest
gasoline mileage ever limit into a Ford
car- and wear* the lowest Ford price
tag in year*.
People expect move of a Ford car
because it’a a Ford —■ and they get
more, for the same reason.- It
.. -
is undeniably the quality car
