THE Ford chassis at only $295 now
makes possible a light motor deliv
ery car at a cost so low that merchants
cannot afford to overlook it. And the
noted dependability of Ford products
means a surer delivery service.
With a body to meet your particular
requirements, which we can supply at
a nominal figure, there is nothing that
will save you so much in time, help
and actual cash as a Ford delivery
car.
If you are operating a merchandise de
livery, let us show you how the Ford
chassis at its extremely low price with
correspondingly low operating cost will
handle your deliveries quickly and at a
minimum expense. Terms if desired
