We’d like to show you some of the things that make the Ford one of America’s finest cars . . . though it’s one of the lowest- priced. Let’s start with these long, low lines. Looks like it hates to stand still, doesn’t it? Let’s take a walk around the NEW’56 FORD! It’s the fine cax at half the fine car price! 2. Here, on your left, is the inspiration for the styling of the ’56 Ford—the famous Ford Thunderbird. Look at those broad, flat hoods, for example. Here is styling that will slay in style. (STRAIGHT KENTUCKY BOURBON WHISKEY, 86 PROOF ANCIENT AGE DISTILLING CO., FRANKFORT, KY. 4. The new 202-h.p. Thunderbird Y-8 will give you a new lease on driving enjoy ment. It’s available in Fordomatic Fair- lane and Station Wagon models. You can have the "GO’-packed 176-h.p. Yr8 in Fordomatic Mainlaine and Customline models, or Ford’s new 137-h.p. Six is available in any model. 5. Note the deep-center design of this new Lifeguard steering wheel. The wheel rim is over three inches above the post to help cushion the driver in case of an ■*' accident. It’s a feature of new Lifeguard Design which Ford spent over two years developing ... to give you added pro tection in case of an accident. 3. Here’s what you ride on. This frame has yve cross-members including a special K-bar member up front. It can really take it! By the way, the control arms of Ford’s Ball-Joint Front Sus pension are angle-mounted to cushion out the head-on as well as the up- down shock of bumps. 6. ’This Lifeguard cushioning for instrument panel and sun visors is optional. It gives you extfk protection when thrown forward in an accident. You may also have optional seat belts to help keep occupants securely in seats. 7. Here’s Ford’s new Lifeguard dopr latch. It is another member of Ford’s new Lifeguard family. A double-grip locking engagement reduces the chance of doors springing open under un usual strain of impact. Chances of serious injury in accidents are less when passengers remain in the car. Well , that covers the important points. But there’s a lot more. So we’d like to invite you to come in and see the new ’56 Ford for yourself. Then you’ll see the colorful new exteriors and interiors, the quality workmanship that is evident everywhere. Then you’ll learn the full story. When you do, you’ll know that Ford is the fine car at half the fine car price. ' f.c.a. U. S. Highway No. 1 JACKSON MOTORS, INC. "Your FORD Dealer" SOUTHERN PINES.
