An Authorized Ford Dealer has too much at stake
to sell a car which will prove a disappointment.
Therefore, he Will sell you a good used car carry
ing the same guarantee as a new car.
HiS investment in garage and service equipment,
the good will he has built up and his connection
with the Ford Motor Company are assets too
valuable for him to jeopardize with one un
