STAY IN THE LOW-PRICE FIELD
BUT
STEP UP TO THE V-8 CLASS
When you are asked to pay "Just a Few
Dollars More"*than Ford prices, go slow.
,Be sure you're actually getting more car
and a bigger value—and not just a bigger
bill. It may be easy to spend more money,
but it's not easy to get more car at any-
where near the same prices.
When you pay more, you should get per-
formance at least as flashing as Ford
performance. You should get at least an
8-cylinder engine. You should get posi-
tive brakes that will stop the car at least
as quickly and smoothly as Ford brakes
do.-Will you get all these?
Will you get at least as much room? Most
cars that boast a little longer wheelbase,
waste space under the hood with a much
longer engine. The Ford V-8 gives you
room in the body where you can use it.
Check claims. Get facts. Make sure that*
any extra amount you plan to pay brings
you corresponding extra value above the
price of the Ford.
Finally, remember that the real reason
why more than a million 1937 Ford V-8s
have already been built is that America
recognizes it as an outstanding car and
the outstanding va!ue for 1937.
