Description
Fords – Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 1/2″ ad that talks about more of the Extra Values that will allow you to keep your Ford up and running for longer. The headline asks you to “Pin Point the Extra Values and you’ll pick a Ford for the years ahead”. This ad contains actual pictures of at least three Fords being driven on city streets and rugged terrain as it talks about the “features” that it wants you to know about. The pictures show and describe the fact that the “Automatic Ride Control adjusts the ride to the road”, that “Ford’s brakes are ‘double-sealed”, there are 5 sturdy cross members – not 4″, by design “Ford gives you more room”, the “Ford’s V-8 engine is the one V-8, the only V-8 in the low-price field”, you will find that “The simplest and most flexible of all automatic transmissions is the new Fordomatic Drive“ and, at least in the Ford Country Squire Station Wagon shown, there is “Room for eight or a half-ton of freight”. The ad mentions that Ford has 7 body types covering 16 models.
