“This expansion may well
make Ford the producer of
the broadest range of com-
mercial vehicles in the world,”
according to John F. McLean,
Jr., divisional truck market-
ing manager.
Accounting for better than
one-third of the new models
is a complete new line of
“short conventional” trucks
in 114 medium-, heavy-, and
extra-heavy models.

The Ford Falcon for 1963
emphasizes sports appeal with
five new models, new styling
and a host of new features.
"The Falcon will offer 17
model choices for 1963 — more
than any other compact line
in the industry,” O. F. Yando,
Ford Division general sales
manager, announced.
New Falcon models, all in
the sporty Futura series, in-
clude a four-door sedan and
two convertibles.
Two completely new hard-
tops and three new station
wagons feature Ford’s pace-
setting middle-weight line of
Fairlane cars for 1963.
Introduced in 1962 in sedan
models only, Fairlane passed
the quarter-million sales mark
at the end of tho model year,
outselling 20 other makes of
full-line domestic cars.
The two new hardtop mo-
dels capture the Thunderbird
spirit with a lower profile,
sleek thin roofline, rakish
windshield angle and smartly
styled over-all appearance.
Newly-designed bucket seats,
a full-length console and lux-
ury car appointments combine
to express a sporty feeling of
fun on wheels.
The new Fairlane wagon
line of three models includes
the Fairlane Squire with sim-
ulated exterior wood paneling.
Bucket seats will be available
for the Squire Wagon as well
as for the Sports Coupe.
Frank E. Zimmerman, Ford
Division car marketing mana-
ger, said, “In addition to new
hardtops and station wagons
for 1963, the Fairlane line
features restyled 2- and 4-
door sedans.
Described as “the most ser-
vice-free standard-size Amer-
ican car ever offered” the
1963 Ford Galaxie features
completely new styling, a new
high eeconomy V8 engine, new
36,000-mile major lubrication
interval and a new, $10-million
soft-riding “compliance link”
suspension.
The longest, liveliest, most beautiful line-up of new
cars ever presented under one dealer's banner! Four
classes of cars ... 44 different models built to a
new high quality standard...all*with amazing new
service-saving features that reduce service stops to
twice a year or every 6,000 miles ... save you time,
trouble, money!

‘The 1963 Galaxie repre-
sents an all-out effort by our
stylists, engineers 'and pro-
duct planners to capture an
even greater share of the vol-
ume standard-size market,”
said E. F. Laux, Ford Divi-
sion general marketing mana-
ger.
Galaxie is currently acco-
unting for 46 per cent of Ford
Division sales as a separate
car line, Mr. Laux said, with
the sleek “500 XL” series tak-
ing one out of every eight Ga-
laxie sales.
“This consumer trend to
sporty and luxuriojs cars
keynotes both the styling and
the many comfort and con-
venience features offered in
all 1963 Galaxies,” Mr. Laux
explained.
Thunderbird for 1963, the
finest quality car ever pro-
duced by Ford Division, in-
corporates more than 2,500
engineering and design chan-
ges readied over tho last 18
months.
“The Thunderbird is the
most changed car we are of-
fering for 1963,” said Lee A
lacocca, Ford Motor Company
vice president and Ford Div-
ision general manager. "Yet,
foi’ the most part, the changes
are inside the vehicle.”
Scores of these changes
were made, not because they
were absolutely necessary, but
because they made the car
better, Mr. lacocca said.
The Thunderbird has long
been recognizecd, for example,
as one of the quietest cars on
the road. Yet, to what it al-
ready had. Ford engineers
added 150 pounds of sound
deadener. This is more than
twice the amount normally
put into other vehicles, Mr.
lacocca explained.
In the most extensive pro-
duct line expansion in the
history of Ford Motor Com-
pany, Ford Division has in-
creased its truck line to 1,0681
different truck models for
1963 — an increase of 318 mo-1

Nutritionists and food e-
conomists often compare the
proportion of the nation’s
food supply derived from each
commodity group with the
proportion of the consumer's
food dollar spent for each
food group. Dairy foods rank
at the top of this comparison
because, while only a fifth of
the food dollar is spent for
dairy foods considerably more
than a fifth of the total nu-
trients in the national food
supply is derived from dairy
foods.
