Four
basic
advantages
enable
Fisher
bo
remarkably
to
increase
body
value
while
holding
down
price,
as
to
make
Fislicr
IJody,
for
tens
of
thousands
of
motor
car
buyers,
the
determining
factor
in
motor
ear
selection.
This
preference
is
the
result
of
the
greater
Fisher
Uody
value
which-
in
cars
outside
the
Fisher
Ilody
group
is
obtain-able
only
in
cars
costing
several
hundred
dollars
more.
"1
First
of
these
fundamental
Fisher
advantages,
is
the
enormous
resources
of
the
Fisher
Body
Corporation.
Somcidca
of
thecxtent
of
Fislicr
resources
mubc
rcnlized
when
one
considers
that
Fisher
opcr-ntcs
the
world's
largest
manufacturing
plant
for
automobile
body
hardware
and
fittings
(Tcrnstcdt);
one
of
the
largest
plate
glass
manufacturing
plants
in
the
world;
and
liur-
vests
timber
from
iu
own
200,-000
acres
of,
forest
lands
and
converts
that
timber
into
lumber
in
its
own
mills.
O
Another
reason
for
the
uri-prcccdented
value
of
Hotly
by
Fisher
is
Fisher
s
huge
pro

wioa
duction,
uith
all
that
means
in
reduced
cttsts
of
fabrication
and
assembly
anil
huge
saving
by
reason
of
great
purclutsing
power.
As
everyone
knows,
quantity
production
is
one
of
the
chief
factors
in
manufacturing
economy.
Fisher
employs
more
than
60,000
persons,
who
build
annually
iu
1(1
great
factories,
upwards
of
1,250,000
uutomobilo
bodies.
Some
ideu
of
Fisher
Ilody
purchasing
power
will
he
gained
when
one
notes
that
iu
the
twelve
months
of
19211
Fisher
required
for
the
manufacture
of
Fisher
bodies,
more
than600,000,000poundsofstecl,
2ft.-,,000,000
board
feel
of
lumber,
26,000,000
square
feet
of
plato
glass
and
about
20,000,000
yards
of
upholster'
cloth.
Q
third
basic
reason
for
-
Fisher
Hotly
value
is
Fishers
