MODEL T FORD
THE Ford Motor Company is making a new car,
but it is still prond of the Model T. It wantd every
' owner of one of these cars to run it as long as
possible at a minimum of trouble and expense.
Because of this policy and because of the
investment that millions of motorists have in
Modfel T cars, the Ford Motor Company will con
ttinuo to supply parts as long as they are needed
by Ford owners.
So that you mav get the greatest use from your
Model T, we suggest that you take it to the near
est Ford dealer and have him estimate on the cost
of any replacement parts that may be necessary.
You will find this the economical thing to do
because a small expenditure now will help to
prevent costlier repairs later on, increase the
value of the car, and give you thousands of miles
of additional service.
For a labor cnarge of only $2.60 you can have
your generator put in first-class condition. A new
universal joint will be installed for a labor cost
of $3* Overhauling the carburetor costs $1.50;
steering gear, $3.50; radiator, $7.50. A complete
overhauling of the rear axle assembly runs be
tween $5.75 and $7 for labor. An average prico
of $2(2.50 covers the overhauling of the motor
and transmission.
These prices are for labor only because the
need and number of new parts depend on the
condition of eaeh car. The cost of these parts is
low, however, because of the Ford policy of manu
facturing and selling at a small margin of profit*
