Description
Ford Pickup – Full color 9 1/2″ x 13″ ad that wants the readers to know just how good their Six Cylinder engines really are. There is a picture of a Blue Ford Pickup hauling several bales of hay through the countryside and the headline warns that “Our new Sixes are messing up the Ford V-8 image! Great!”. The text talks about how the Ford V-8 has always been the engine talked about for power but now Ford has designed their Six to retain the economy of a Six but have the power of a V-8. It also mentions another consideration for trucks, their Twin-I-Beam suspension.
