Our records show that the average use-
ful life of a Model T Ford is seven years.
That means there should be a lot of good
service left in your car.
Don’t sacrifice it just to get a new auto-
mobile, but bring it in and let us look it
over. We’ll tell you just what it needs and
fix it up at low cost. The labor charge for
completely overhauling the engine and
transmission is only $20 to $25.

free, new and improved 1929 road maps of fourteen of the great
states of Conocoland—the states in which Conoco Gasoline is most
widely distributed. Just send in the coupon and the maps will come
by return mail.
Such a trip isn’t nearly as expensive as you think. But whether
economy is important to you or not, you will save money through
extra mileage and save peace of mind through extra motor effici-
ency if you make it a rule to stop always at the Conoco sign.
