Whole Family Repairing a Specialty An entirely new body design of remarkable beauty as well as practical utility, is the distinguishing feature of,the new Ford Coupe. The body lines follow in one graceful sweep from the new high radiator to the "Turtle-buck" curve of the rear deck, which has been enlarged to conveniently accommodate bulky pips and packages. Upholstering is luxuriously deep both in the seat and back, the covering being of rich brown broadcloth with mahogany stripe. A recess shelf is provided behind the seat, ior parcels. Interior linings include revolving window regulators, and door locks and handles finished in nickel. The large rear window is fitted with silk poplin shade in dull silvered mountings. The windshield is surmounted by a broad sun-visor, which protects the eyes lrom glare. As a handsome and practical all-weather car for town or country, the new Ford Coupe cannot be surpassed.
