THE MODERN MOTIF—Red and black accentuate the
instruments, making them easier to see. Control knohs and
cigarette lighter are ivory colored plastic. Center striping is
chromium. Convenient glove compartment. Everything is de-
signed to be useful, first—functional beauty inevitably follows.
IXPERTS in color design are enthusiastic about the
new Ford Deluxe interiors. They have "spotted"
immediately a new note in interior design—the subtle
use of taupe grey as a background for feminine
costumes.
Window mouldings, door handles, the instrument
panel and even the beautiful, slim steering wheel, are
all finished in blended greys. This color scheme can-
not possibly clash with even the most brilliant en-
semble. On the contrary, it will accentuate it.
And the upholstery! . . . Here beauty i9 coupled
with long-wearing quality characteristic of custom-
built cars. In all Ford Deluxe closed cars you have
your choice of two materials at no extra cost. Mohair
or soft, pin-stripe Broadcloth in Sedans and Coupes.
Bedford Cord or one hundred percent Wool Suede
in Touring Sedans. See the stylish, new Ford interiors
