Millions of
Model T Fords
are still in
active service
FOR nearly twenty year*, the Model T Ford led the motor
industry and it adll ia used by mote people than any other
automobile. More than eight million Model T Ford* are in
active service today—an indication of their sturdy worth,
reliability and economy.
Because of the tremendous investment which people
have in these cars and because so many of them will be
driven for two, three, and even five more years, the Ford
Motor Company will continue to make replacement parts
until, ai Henry Ford himself says, "the last Model T is
off the road.”
For the Ford Motor Company has always believed that
its full duty consists not only in making a good automobile
at a low price, but also in keeping it running efficiently for
you as long as possible at a minimum of expense.
No matter where you five, therefore, you can still buy
Model T Ford part' with the same assurance as formerly,
knowing that they will give you the kind of service you
have a right to expect, and at the same time protect the
money you have invested in your car.
All Fcrd replacement parts, as you may know, are made
of the same materials and in the same way as those from*
which your car was originally assembled, and are low in
price because of the established Ford policy.
So that you may gel the greatest use from your Model T
Ford o- Ci the longest period of time, we suggest that you
take the car to the nearest Ford dealer and have him esti
mate on the cost of any replacement parts which may be
necessary. You may find that a very small expenditure
will maintain the value of your car and will be the means
of giving you thousands of mile* of additional service.
