.'Vhorouqhly 3&ritidb Ford produced' l-: " "ONE MILLIONTH” NE\i MODEL CAR (In 15 Months.) ON THE 4TH. FEBRUARY, 1929. The following testimonial proves i' ■worth:— P.O. THE MANAGER, Box No. 49, TAURANGA. 11th. April, 192 The Colonial Motor Co., Ltd., AUCKLAND. Dear Sir, — Just over seven months ago we bought a Ford Model “A” Touring Car from Messrs F. N. Christian and Co., and are most pleased with •its performance. We think that you should know Just what the Car has done, =and how it has stood up to the work. We have the Mail Contract between Tauranga and Rotorua, via Oropi, and anyone who that road will understand what that means. For three months we carried on the service under conditions which were without a parallel, the front bumper often pushing the mud ahead and a set of best quality truck chains refusing to stand up to the work. The grades we have to contend with are in places heavier than ‘ONE IN SEVEN, our loads have •often been excessive, and our past •experience leads us to believe that NO OTHER CLASS OF WHEEL COULD HAVE STOOD THE •STRAIN due to side-slipping, and no vehicle of any price could have given better service on this run. We have never been held up, and we wish particularly to say, and we are in a position to say it, that the internal braking is most wonderful, not only from the point of holding on grades, but also from the point of wear. Previously we found it impossible to keep external brakes in order, but these brakes have only once been relined, and we have now done 12,400 miles. We can only say that it is a ■wonderful job—not at the price, but at any price. Yours faithfully, {Signed)—W. H. LOWE. D. McL. WALLACE, {■Ford Safes and Service Station, THAMES, TE AROHA.
