Protect yourself from extra dif- ficulties with flat tires NOW while tires are fine. Loosen lug nuts and drip penetrating or lubricating oil on threads of wheel studs, then tighten nuts agin. The few minutes spent now will save more in an emergency. A lighter car uses less gasoline. Remove excess tires and tools from your trunk; take off the luggage rack unless you're us- ing it. The most expensive American car ever built was the Duesenberg, which was always designed for the very rich. In 1933, Greta Barba bought one for $24,000. Still in top shape, it brought $90,000 just a year and a half ago.! What a bargain you gel a Larry Sniders! So many improvements since 1933, and our fine cars cost nothing near S24,000. Test drive one today. Larry Snider MOTORS LIMITED EXETER 235-1640 LONDON 227-4191 Huron County's Largest Ford Dealer Drive in soonl in Zurich.
