An attachment that makes a fully guaranteed one-ton truck out of any Ford, Maxwell, Dodge Bros., Chevrolet, Buick or Overland car. That gives you a permanent truck construction as well built as the most costly truck you can buy and yet cheaper in price; than a good pair of horses. A hauling unit that moves twice the tonnage moved by horses that has demonstrated a ton-mile operating cost of less than 8 cents from records obtained from over 10,000 users in over 400 'lines of work. A sturdy truck construction that has reduced time lost out of service to a minimum. The first Smith

Form-a-Truck has been in steady service for four years has covered over 20,000 miles hauled an average load of 2,050 pounds and cost hut S for repairs. A proved transportation service of wonderful day in and day out ef ticiency and earning power. That lias added to the profits of every user by cutting down expense in the hauling and delivery departments and by eliminating un:Kve;sary and wasteful equipment. The vSmith Form-a-Truck gives you a one-ton truck of 125 in. wheel base; with either 9 or 12 ft. loading platform; with a sturdy double chain drive; solid truck t pe rear tires; a rear axle construction that supports 90',; of the load carried takes ail.tlie carrying work off the power plant and puts it on the truck construction.
