The manufacturing plants have
been ct work for several weeks
turning cut major parts of the new
car and a few days more win see
the famous assembly line in opera
ton to produce the first of the
new type cars" the announcement

rapidly. Ford officials say.
The manufacture Of the new en-
CINE blocks. axles, wheels, pistons,
crankshafts and other major parts

facture Of certain body and other
