In Canada, too, Ford buses have played an im portant part in solving wartime transportation problems. The power plant which drives these Ford vehicles on the home front and on the fighting front is the Ford V-8 engine. At home and abroad, the Ford V8 Engine is famous for its smooth, surging power and rugged reliability. It is a thrifty engine, economical of gas and oil, and it keeps on eating up the miles with the very minimum of care. In war or in peace, it's a great power plant. Certainly it's the engine you'll want in your post-war car. LARGEST PRODUCERS OF MILITARY VEHICLES IN THE BRITISH EMPIRE ton j TT V 1 'Mm 7 MTU AKWfVrih m R FORD ENGI OF CANADA, LI M i T E
