FORD CAR HAS
MANY REFlNEMENTS
Body And Mechanical improvements
Meet Public Approval. " -. :.


The Ford Motor Company, Detroit
has just made public a list of recent
improvements il the mechanical fea.
lures Of Ford cars.
Asserting that Ford cars are BET
ter today than they ever have been
before, the statement adds that fuel
consumption is lower; the engine is
even more efficient than formerly;
Improvements in the springs and
steering apparatus insure easier rid
ing and driving qualities; a new head
lamp lens which complies with all
state laws, improves the road light:
and that many other minor better
ments have been made.
Ford pistons and connecting rods
have been re-designed and are match
ed for weight before assembling into
motors. This reduces vibration and
gives the motor quicker pickup.
The new pistons weigh three quarters
of a pound less than those formerly
used. A highly polished crank SHAFT
bearing, surface also reduces wear
and, added to the piston and cor
Meeting rod improvements, insures a
smooth-running and better balanced
motor The material used in the
Ford crankshaft and the care and
precision in its manufacture make it
second to none.
The new Ford carburetor gives in
creased acceleratiOn. Though not
radically different fro milne carbure-
tor previously used, the new con-
struction improves the all-around
performance ot the motor, giving 1t a
quicker pickup and a greater t1exibtl-
ity of action
The wiring system has been COM
pletely re-designed. aud while 1t
costs more to install than the old
system, is most efficient, proof Of
which is evidenced by the fact that it
affords q fire insurance rate as low as
the higher priced cars on the mar
ket
Many other changes have been
made: A 16 inch steering wheel Is
now standard; Thinker roller bear
ings are used in the front wheels;
one piece pressed steel running board
brackets insure body rigidity and ELI
inmate vibration and body noises; a
dash weather-trOugh prevents rain
from reaching coil terminals or dash
wiring: the steering mechanism has

also been improved; and 80 tools
supplied to purchasers of Ford cars
have also been improved in quality.
Another important improvement IN
the truck chassis is the adoption OF
cord tires as standard equipment Oh
the rear wheels.
The change made some time ago in
the seating arrangement of the tour
ing car has met with widespread az
proval. BY lowering the seats and
altering the seat backs greater com
fort was added.

and the consumption OF raw and fir

it possible to sell Fords at their pres
ent low prices and at the same time
to produce a r.,t ol exceptionally
