DELUXE FORD
SHOW MONDAY
Luxury Cars OF the Line To
Be Part of Regular
Patteson Exhibit

Drew Patteson, OF Patteson Motor
Co, lo--l Ford dealer, announced
today that they win hold a spe-
c.al showing Of Ford Deluxe cars
during the week beginning Mon
day. September IS.
During this week. Mr.. Patteson
said, Deluxe cars will be featured
IN the local showroom so that res
idents Of Brownsville will have an
opportunity to inspect the various
body types and learn Of their un-
usual appointments. Special liter
ature describing the Deluxe cars
will be available.
Most of the Deluxe cars are
comparatively new in the Ford line.
Mr.. Patteson said. Until this year,
he said, there were but two Fords
OF this type. but in recent months
there have been added a Sedan, q
Coupe, a Phaeton and a Roadster.
"The introduction Of this sesies
Of Deluxe cars by the Ford Motor
Company and their reception on
the part of the public r an i'm
portant development in the auto
mobile business" MI. Patteson said.
They are designed for persons who
desire a Ford with its low cost &C.
onomy Of operation and dependable
ity, but who at the same time pre-
fer the refinements and luxurious
appointments usually found only in
more expensive cars.
The unusual quality Of the De-
Luxe cars Is readily apparent in the
upholstery. In the sedanS and the
coupe, this Is either a rich, soft
mohair or a beautiful, durable Bed
ford cord, while the Roadster and
the Phaeton are upholstered In
genuine leather.
The upholster, however, Is but
n Of the outstanding features Of
the Deluxe cars. In the Sedans, for
instance, there are arm rests at the
sides Of the real seat and a fold
ing arm rest in the center, flexible
robe rail, toggle grips, dome light,
rugs to harmonic with the uphols-
terry, hardware Of scroll design and
other appointments not usually as
sociate with a car in the Ford
price field. The interior of the De-
Luxe Coupe is equally distinctive.
The open cars are of special
sport design with trimmings and
accessories TO match the quality of
the genuine leather seats. These
cars have trunk racks, cowl lights,
fender wells with spare wheels and
tires, and handsome tops with
natural wood bows.
For those who prefer a convert
ible car, the cabriolet offers the
economy OF the Ford with fine ap-
pointments and exceptional style"
