"My old Sahara Jeep

When Johnny conies sailing home again, he’ll be more
than ready for soft Beat cushiona. Through the windows
he’ll eye that super-colossal feature, the grand old U. S. A.
It will look all the better because you—Johnny’s loving
proud folks—are with him again. After your nights of
volunteer war work—and coupons—and questionnaires—
you Could easily stand as much touring as Johnny.
You’ll need a car that can stand it. But since the con-
version from war production must take time—just as
conversion from peace production did—you’ll fret-a long
while for any new Victory model. Better preserve your
present car for the duration and beyond.
One big thing working against this, plainly speaking,
is engine acid! After combustion stops, and your car
stands long, the acid always formed in any engine can
keep gnawing undisturbed. Gone are the big mileage,
ample speed and resulting engine heat that formerly kept
down acid damage. Today’s opposite driving conditions
could multiply acid damage, except that you can have
the interior of your engine protectively oil-plated by the
simple economical change to Conoco NM> motor oil.
There is a’ synthetic in Conoco N'h oil that makes it
"magnetically active,” as it were, attracting oil-plahno
to inner engine surfaces. Oil-plating; resembles other
anti-corrosive plating in not all draining down at a stand-
still, and in maintaining interference against such a
dangerous corrosive as acid.' Today—and for many
tomorrows—oil-plate with Nth at Your Mileage
