Getting Your Ford Fixed

This is from June 1925 in the Wellington local newspaper, New Zealand:

I would say this is a standard Ford advert with the local tag line added to the bottom.

The early accounts would appear that Ford was setting up a proprietary shop repair network. Ford publications aimed at owners warned about using counterfeit, non-approved parts.

Some aftermarket Ford parts were made by the same manufactures that made parts for the Ford Company.

Heres a Ford dealer service truck. Take a look at the jacks on the running board. Are those extensions of some sort with them? Interesting street location name too!
Maybe he was going to change the rear flat tire on the Touring.
