morrow, December 2. Known as Mod- e1 “A,” it replaces the Model “T” whi- ch for nineteen years made automotive history, and comprises a line of six passenger models supplemented by light delivery and truck models. Pleasing appearance, a wide range of bright color co‘mhinations, great power, high speed, flexibility, road ab- ility, unusual getaway, economical op- eration and rugged, simplfied con- struction are cited as outstanding fea- tures of the long-awaited car. Design and construction hitherto peculiar to highâ€"priced machines are said to be incorporated in the new product. The lines of the new Ford are dis- tinctive. The wheelbase is 103 V; inch- es, and the lower suspension and deepâ€" ly-crowned. gracefully contoured one- piece fenders are pleasing to the eye and suggest speed and stability. Bod- ies are of all steel construction and a new type of one-piece, steel spoke _wheel employing a drop-centre tire and eliminating the old-fashioned rim and rim clamps is employed. A selec- tive sliding gear transmission is used with a multiple dry disc clutch, and the rear axle is of the threeâ€"quarter floating type with spiral bevel gears permanently adjusted and noiseless. Full torque tube drive which relieves springs of all driving strain is featur- ed, and four-wheel, mechanically actu- ated, internal expanding brakes have been incorporated in the new product. Throughout the design of the car ease and quietness of operation, great strength and accessibility of all parts have been kept in mind. According to Ford officials the purpose back of the new car is to provide a small car whiâ€" ch will incorporate all light car advanâ€" tages with the features of comfort, speed and safety heretofore peculiar to heavy and expensive machines. This, they confidently assert, has been accomplished in the new Model “A” Ford. The four-cylinder power plant of the new Ford developes 40 horse power at 2200 revolutions. This is practically double the power of its pre- decessor. but this great increase in power has been effected without sacriâ€" flCe of economy and it is claimed that the new car will afford thirty or more miles to the gallon of gasoline. This remarkable increase in power is effec- The Officiai Specifications Holiness Meeting .. . . . . . . . ‘.1 v.42.

The new motor is practically vibrationless owing to the careful balancing of these parts. The Model “A” motor incorporates a number of unusual features of design which have been born of years of ex- periment. Most of these features make for long life, simplified service and more economical maintenance. Lubâ€" rications is a combination of pump and splash systems and cooling combines thermo-syhon and pump circulation of water. The water pump is so design- ed that it comes into use only when the motor is turning at a fair rate of speed, and overcooling at low speeds or in cold weather is thus avoided. The motor itself is essentially a low- speed motor, developing its maximum power at 2200 rpm. This is consist- ent with established Ford practiCe which always has aimed at securing a minimum amount of piston travel per mile of road travel, with a resultant minimum of strain and wear on mov- ing parts. The motor is set in the frame at an angle of 3 1-3 deg. and practically a straight-line drive to the rear axle is thus secured. The nine plate multiple disc clutch comprises four driving and five driven discs which operate with- out lubrication. A feature of the clutch is that on disengagement it im- mediately and completely neutralizes the driven plates with the result that the gearshift lever may be snapped a- cross immediately the clutch pedal is depressed without fear of clashing gears. Clutches of this type have hithereto been peculiar to-priced cars. The transmission departs from con- ventional light car practice in the use of ball and roller bearings instead of bushings. These bearings make for more satisfactory operation, smoother performance and longer life. The steering gear also is unique in the light car field, being of the irreversible worm and sector type with the worm carried in ball bearings. Front and weight of the car also is carried on roller bearings which are placed at the top of the spindle bolts, and the result Light Delivery Models will be avail- able as the task of swinging over the huge factory at Ford, Ontario is com- pleted. curve at 45 miles per hour and has a turning radius of only 17 feet. Production at present is centering upon the Tudor model. Other models including the Model “AA” Truck and of these refinements is unusual ease in steering. Transverse semi-elliptic springing is used, and for it Ford engineers claim the following advantages: that' the springs contact with the frame at only one point and that in the centre line of the chassis with the result that the chassis ‘is subject to no twisting strains; that it permits the full torque tube drive; that it reduces unsprung weight to a minimum and improves riding qualities; that the springs have only their natural function of absorb- I road shocks to perform; and that danâ€" l ger of uneven application of front wheel brakes is avoided because the front axle is held rigidly at right ang- les to the chassis centre line and there is no possibility of uneven tension up- on brake rods. The brakes are of rpccial Ford design and operate on the 7nner surface of substantial steel irums. All brake parts are cadmium plated as a precaution against rust and each brake is instantaneously ad- justable through manipulation of a small adjusting stud on the exterior of each brake drum. Brake pedal or ‘mr‘d lever will apply all four brakes simultaneously. Sixty per cent. of the braking effort is applied to the rear wheels and forty per cent. to the front wheels. ‘ DO YOU REMEMBER?
