This invitation comes from your Ford Dealer. He’s inviting
you to get behind the wheel of a Ford V-8 and compare it with
any other car in its field. He’s willing to bet that Ford’s
performance will be an eye-opener to you, because it’s based
on V-8 power—from a great V-8 engine made by Canada’s
most experienced V-8 builder.
He’s sure you’ll be impressed when you discover that Ford has
the smooth ride and the road-holding steadiness that maybe
you thought were available only in cars costing a lot more,
• He believes you’ll find that Fordomatic Drive operates more
smoothly, more quietly and more efficiently than any other
transmission on the road ... and that Ford's power features—
"Master-Guide” Power Steering, Power Brakes. Power Seat
and Power Window Lifts—take practically every last ounce
of effort out of driving.
He’s convinced that when you add everything up you’ll know
why Ford is Canada's best buy. There’s a Ford waiting for you
to try at your Ford Dealer’s now. Step in and drive.
