In blazing across the finish line Ford demonstrated once more the sizzling per formance that keeps it the largest-selling V-8 in the world. No other car in the field could match Ford for getaway “git”... for straight away acceleration . . . for all-around road ability. To see exactly how the other cars trailed behind Forth see the chart at the top of this page. One of the secrets of Ford’s performance is the tremendous torque (wheel tinning power) developed by Ford engines. For example, Ford’s new 225-h.p. Thunderbird engine develops more torque than any other engine in the low-price field. This means quicker response, smoother running in the kind of driving you do! Just nudge Ford’s accelerator and whoosh! You pass in instants when instants count! Ford now offers this mighty 225-h.p. engine with any Ford Fairlane or Station Wagon model with Fordomatic. What’s more, these engines are coming off the assembly lines right now! So why wait? Come in today for a Test Drive. Find out for yourself about Ford performance.
