Our year begins on August Ist of each year and
ends on July 31st of the next year.
Last year we sold 93 Ford Cars. Our estimate
was 114 Ford Cars.
Our estimate this year is only 96 Ford cars. We
never get over 90 percent of our estimate. We have
already sold and delivered 12 Ford cars on new es
timate.
We would have sold 50 more cars last year could
we have gotten them. This year cars are scarcer
than ever. The demand for cars is almost twice as
great this year as last.
You can see where this is leading us to! We may
be able to get cars this winter, but we must have
the orders for same in advance.
Take warning and if you intend to buy a Ford
car next summer have it delivered this winter. This
is no idle talk. We want to sell them worse than
you want to buy them, and we know that if we
don't make our deliveries between now and Spring
that we can’t get the cars and will lose tht sales.
