Good {Performance at Low Cost m * % / / MANY SEVERE TESTS SHOW THE SUBSTANTIAL WORTH THAT HAS BEEN BUILT INTO THE FORD. CAR

THE STURDINESS and reliability of the new Ford, so evident in the every-day uses of a motor car, are revealed also in many unusual tests of stamina and endurance. Over deeply rutted roads, through desert sands and deep snow, it has gone forward to new conquests of time and distance. From every corner of the world come reports of its good performance. In England, the new Ford won three gold medals, one silver medal, and one bronze medal in the run from London to Exeter. In Pern it won first and third places in the reliability run over the tortuous Amanceas Road. A Mexican general tells how one of the first of the new Fords in that country was driven from Acapulco to Atoyac “over a difficult country where there are no roads at all and the land is strewn with rocks and soft sand. Natives along the way saw their first automobile with positive wonder.” In Java, anew Ford was driven to the top of the Dieng Plateau, one of the highest mountains in Java. Previously the ascent to the old Hindu statues at the summit had been made only by horseback to the resthouse, thence on foot. In Poland, anew Ford won the 2000-mile international race from Warsaw to Lemberg to Warsaw. Two years ago, anew Ford fought its way along rough wagon trails to become the first car in history to cross the Peace River Block from Fort St. John to Hudson Hope, from the Alberta boundary to the western border of the block. In 1930, the new Ford won the winter race arranged by the Royal Automobile Club of Sweden. This race was over slippery mountain roads. At times the car was half hidden by snow. Frequently the temperature was 20 degrees below zero. These severe tests show the enduring quality that has been built into the new Ford and its ability to stand up under gruelling driving conditions. Long, hard service will confirm your first impression of quality and increase your pride in its capable performance. The value of simplicity of design, good materials and accuracy in manufacturing is especially apparent after the first twenty-five thousand miles. See the nearest dealer and have him give you a demonstration ride in the new Ford. Check up every point that goes to make a good automobile and you w ill know that it is a value far above the price you pay. Ford Motor Company
