These figures—320,817—represent the actual number of cars manufactured by us since
August 1st, 1916, and delivered by our agents to retail buyers.
This unusual fall and winter demand for Ford cars makes it necessary for us to confine
the distribution of cars only to those agents who have orders for immediate delivery to
retail customers, rather than to permit any agent to stock cars in anticipation of
later spring sales.
We are issuing this notice to intending buyers that they may protect themselves against
delay or disappointment in securing Ford cars. If, therefore, you are planning to
purchase a Ford car, we advise you to place your order and take delivery now.
Immediate orders will have prompt attention.
Delay in buying at this time may cause you to wait several months.
Enter your order today for immediate delivery with our authorized Ford agent listed
below and don’t be disappointed later on.
