ILOOK AT THE LABEL
PVIIIIS entirely new car surpasses the accepted standards
of light car accomplishment; sweeps aside all boundaries
of price class; establishes a new standard of acceleration,
speed, power and smoothness. Heretofore the following
characteristics have been combined only in chpensive cars.
Speed -better than a mile a minute.
Acceleration -5 to 25 miles per hour in h!;h gear in
83ii seconds.
Endurance -this car will travel' all day at 50 miles per
hour without strain on motor or chassis.
Riding coda/ ortL-flexible springs and four hydraul'c shock
absorbers permit comfortable travel at high. speed over
the roughest road.
Roadability -this car's low center of gravity holds it
snugly to the road on an unbanked turn even at high speed.
Power -in deep, loose sand with the front wheels cramped
and from a dead stop,, the car will tern in a tight circle,
forward or reverse, without effort.
Effective braking -the instant response of mechanical,
four-wheel brakes with dual control ensures positive brak-
ing for any emergency.
Positive steering control --A relaxed hand on the steering
wheel will hold the car steady in loose sand and over
bumpy roads. Turning radius 17 ft.
•
Economy -30 miles per gallon of gasoline, plus the well
known economics of Ford car maintenance.
Appearance -coach work of pleasing proportions, taste-
fully finished in an extensive range of color combinations
of durable satin lacquer.
Quietness -Vibration in the engine is practically negli-
gible. New final drive is exceptionally quiet. Double -ply
anti -squeak tape, asphaltum treated fabric and hardwood
blacks between body and frame minimize body noises.

Engine --At 2200 revolutions per minute the new four
cylinder engine develops 40 H. P. This revolution speed
is low for such power and sets an entirely new standard
for light car speed and acceleration, enduring quality and
operating economy.
Engine lubrication -Combination of pump, splash and
gravity feed thoroughly lubricates all frictional surfaces
regardless of road grades.
Cooling system -Combination water pump and Ford
thermo-syphon system doubly insures ample radiation.
Engine warms up quickly but will not overheat.
Electrical system -The new Ford designed distributor is
placed on top of engine permitting direct connection to
spark plugs by means of short bronze bands. The single
coil is protected by a waterproof case. Co -incidental lock
on ignition circuit is theft proof. The powerful starting
motor and dependable generator are both of Ford design.
Clutch and transmission -Patterned after the famous
Lincoln, these units give an operating ease never before
found in moderate priced cars. The nine plate multiple
dry disc clutch and the selective transmission are designed
to make shifting of gears remarkably easy and simple.
Getaway, unexcelled by any car made today, is just one of
the many advantages. Three speeds forward and one re-
verse. All gears are made of heat-treated chrome alloy steel.
The only light car in which transmission shafts are mounted
on ball and roller bearings.
Rear Axle -The axle shaft itself carries no weight 4
the 3 floating principle places the weight of the car on
the axle housing. Flexible roller bearings minimire rear
wheel friction. A Torque Tube drive and spiral bevel gear
are additional features.
Sdrings -Transverse semi -elliptic design. Relieved of all
iving strain, they perform the sole function of cushioning
road shocks. The transverse type of spring helps to pre-
vent a large amount of frame distortion, makes four-wheel
brake operation more efficient, gives easier steering and
reduces unsprung weight.
