Of course, the newest engine m the low-price car field is still the V-8 engine. Since Ford made it available to all car users (keeping it as economical as cars with fewer cylinders) the Ford V-8 has been the newest engine on the market and remains the newest for 1996. You may hay a car on minor "talking points"—some specially advertised fea ture "with the car thrown in"—but after alt it is the engine you buy when you buy a car. Hence we put the engine first Other new point* about the ear make a long list. Its lines are much more beautiful. The hood is longer and sweeps forward over the distinctive new radiator grille, giving the car a length and grace that are instantly impressive. The fenders are larger, with a wide flare. Homs are con cealed behind circular grilles beneath the headlamps. New steel wheels. Ford upholstery — always of sterling quality and excellent taste—is rich and enduring. The appointments of the car 'vrve a new touch of refinement. There is no question about tho increased beauty of the Ford V-8 for 1996. In more practical matters, many improvements have been made— Steering is made easier by a new steer ing gear ratio. The cooling system cir culates 5 l /a gallons of water through a new. larger radiator. Natural thermo- syphon action is assisted by two cen trifugal water pumps. New style hood louvres permit a rapid air-flow around die engine. Easier, quieter shifting of Ford grara —The gear shift lever now travels a shorter distance.
