00:00.000 --> 00:13.000
And now here they are again, Ford's economy twins for 1960. Two new Fords, two new low-price fields, two wonderful new ways to go the finest.

00:13.000 --> 00:20.000
And right now we're going to take a closer look at the large economy-sized Ford, the Fairlane 500.

00:20.000 --> 00:39.000
A few minutes ago you heard all about its big economy features. We told you it uses low-cost regular gas, goes 4,000 miles between oil changes, never needs waxing, and is priced $142 less than last year.

00:39.000 --> 00:51.000
And now I'd like to show you some of the value features of the Fairlane 500. Its styling, of course, speaks for itself, and this is all new 1960 styling, not warmed-over 59.

00:51.000 --> 01:01.000
You get a choice of three Thunderbird V8 engines, or if you prefer, the thrifty MileageMaker 6. And look at this.

01:01.000 --> 01:10.000
The annoying dogleg still found in most of the cars has been eliminated because the windshield post sweeps forward.

01:10.000 --> 01:20.000
And when you get in, you'll discover king-size, built-for-people comfort with generous increases in hip and leg room and up to four inches in shoulder room.

01:20.000 --> 01:29.000
Seats are chair-high and foam-padded, and you can see the road four and a half feet closer to the car over Ford's new sloping hood.

01:29.000 --> 01:34.000
Interior trim and fabrics are as fine as those in some of the most expensive cars.

01:34.000 --> 01:42.000
In a Fairlane 500, you get more beauty, more luxury, more comfort, and all at $142 less than last year.

01:42.000 --> 01:49.000
It's easy to see why the Fairlane 500 wins the nod as the value leader of all the big cars.

01:49.000 --> 01:56.000
See it when you look over Ford's economy twins for 1960, now on display in your Ford dealer showroom.

01:56.000 --> 01:59.000
They're the economy choice of a lifetime.
