YOUR BEST BUY
IN PAINTS!
Nothing in its field can match it for luxury.
The elegant Torino Brougham is rich in looks, lavish in _
appointments. Compare it to other intermediates. You
won’t find its equal anywhere—not in appearance
and certainly not in price. It has a longer
wheelbase for a smoother ride A wider
track tor better road holding Hideaway
Headlamps, concealed windshield wiper'.
302 CID V-8 are just a few of the standard
features Take your choice of 2- or 4 door
hardtops. Either one is worth a visit just to see
now beautiful it is.

New SportsRoof styling... six great V-8’s.
Torino GT gives you the ride, the handling, even its own aerodynamic SportsRoof styling that adds to your go. And you can
go all the way up to the 429 Cobra Jet Ram-Air V-8 with a living, breathing, through-the-hood shaker. Then add our new Laser
Stripes, high-back buckets, 4-speed Hurst Shifter*... you get the Idea. Park the GT If you want to collect a crowd, and
take them on a cruise If you want to dazzle them.

Adam and Eve didn't find
Franklin County first. The
world would be a different

mins of progress are made.
This place is the golden re-
serve and did not germinate
the seed of success until re-

with that. He felt there ought
to be a cutting off point some

kills the goose; that cutting
off place.” Every endeavor
should be to the maximum
and continue to the ultimate.
No person or group of peo-
ple should be satisfied with
a certaia point. It is a well
proven fact that we should
aspire higher and higher. By
the way, what do you manu-
facture? ‘‘Mini Skirts” he said.

Lowest priced hardtop in its class.
This Is the beauty that caught the competition napping. You won't find a lower priced Intermediate hardtop anywhere In the
country. Yet it offers you many features you’ll find only on the more expensive Torino models. Longer wheelbase. Wider track.
Curved side glass. Concealed windshield wipers. Aberglass belted tires, and more. Falriane 500 Is just one of thirteen
great ways to go Torino In 1970. Your Ford Dealer Is the man to see. to see them alL
