Special 1T-8 now offer new Trigger-Torque power!
When you Test-Drive Ford's new
Trigger-Torque power you're in for a
thrilling surprise For here is power
that can get you moving in split sec-

was only just recently that other makers
in Ford's field adopted this kind of engine-23
years later Yet it is interesting
to note that the majority of costlier cars
were offering V-8's some time ago
