lem at the Henry Ford Museum.
Nine locomotives were all right.
But the tenth was too much.
A railroad gave the museum a
huge Allegheny type locomotive.
one of the largest ever built, to add
to its collection of nine railway
engines.
The Allegheny turned out to be
some 16 inches higher than the
huge oak doors of the museum So
rather than dismantle the doors

An announcement OF decisive Importance
TO anyone about to buy a new automobile

The most exhaustive endurance test
ever given an automobile has just
been completed by two stock 81
FOrds-identical in every respect
with cars now being offered by Ford
Dealers.
Under the supervision of the United
States Auto Club and the Fedora
zion Internationale de Automobile,
each of these two 81 Fords travelled
$4,000 miles in less than 20 days.
Ford No. averaged 1OS.16 mph for
the entire run =. Ford No. 2, over
lO7 mph. These averages include
time for all pit stops.
In all, the ST Ford smashed 45S
national and international records.
This test was run on the Bonneville
Salt Flats in Utah :. it was the
longest left turn in history.
Milford chronicle., 1956-10-26

A car, like man, is known by its deeds,
not tDordS.
That is why, we at Ford, despite our con-
fdence in our 81 cars, let their deeds of
accomplishment speak for themselves.
Therefore, we engaged an independent
engineering organization to test our 81
cars more thoroughly than any other
cars have ever been tested before = in
this country or abroad.
We provided them with ST Fords-cars
identical with those now offered by Ford
Dealers. The rest we left up to them.
Here is tOllGt they did:
They took these cars to the Salt Flats at
Bonneville, Utah.
Here, twelve of the worlds greatest
drivers took over.
In relays they drove these cars night and
day for distance greater than twice
around the world +. distance equal
