FORD ANNOUNCES IMPROVED
LINE OF BODY TYPES
Changes Are Most Pronounced; Bod
ies Longer, Lower and All Steel.
Goes To Colors In Closed Cars—Many
Other Refinements Made—Brakes
Are Larger, More Powerful.
Body changes and chassis more
pronounced than any made since the
adoption of the Model T chassis were
announced here today by the Ford
Motor Company. There will be no
advance in price, it also was stated.
Production of improved cars will be
under way next week.
Outstanding features of the im
provements in both open and enclosed
types are lower, all-steel bodies on a
lowered chassis, complete new design
in most types, a change from black to
color in closed cars, larger, lower
fenders, newly designed seats and
larger, more powerful brakes.
Longer, lines, effected through
higher radiator and redesigned cowl
and bodies are apparent in all the
improved Ford cars, but are especially
pronounced in the open types. Wide
crown fenders hung close to the
wheels contribute to the general ef
fect of lowness and smartness.
While Runabout and Touring Car
remains in black, the closed bodies
are finished in harmonic color
schemes, enhanced by nickel radia
tors. The Coupe and Tudor bodies
are finished in deep channel green
while the Fordor is rich Windsor Ma
roon.
Greater comfort is provided for
driver and passengers in both open
and closed cars by larger compart
ments, more deeply cushioned seats
and greater leg room.
Many new conveniences are also in
corporated in the improved cars. In
the Runabout, Touring Car, Coupe
and Tudor, the gasoline tank is under
the cowl and filled through an in
geniously located filler cap completely
hidden from sight by a cover similar
in appearance to a cowl ventilator.
One-piece windshield and narrowed
pillars in the Tudor and Coupe offer
the driver greatly increased visibility
and improved ventilation.
Driving comfort is materially in
creased by lower seats, scientifically
improved back rests and lowered
steering whe°l. Brake and clutch
pedals are wider and more conve
niently spaced.
Four doors are now provided on tAe
Touring Car and two on the Run
about permitting the driver to take
his place from the left side of the
car. Curtains, held securely by rods,
open with the doors.
Most important in the mechanical
changes are the improved brakes.
The transmission brake drum and
bands have been considerably in
creased in size which gives the foot
brake softer and more positive action
as well as longer life. The rear wheel
brake drums are larger and the
brake of self energizing type.
Cord tires are now standard equip
lxient on all Ford cars.
