Smith  Form-a-Truck  is  an  attachment  which 
combines  with  any  Ford  or  Maxwell  chassis 
to  form  a  fully  guaranteed  one-ton  truck. 
To  install  a  Smith  Form-a-Truck  attachment  it  is  only 
necessary  to  remove  the  rear  wheels  from  a  Ford  or 
.  yL .ix well  chassis —  fit  the  Smith  Form-a-Truck  frame 
over  the  car  frame  —  bolt  it  securely  at  the  front  end 
of  the  car  frame  and  put  sprockets  on  the  rear  axle 
spindlec  which  formerly  carried  the  car  wheels. 
This  work  can  be  done  by  any  two  men  in  a  few  hours. 
The  result  is  a  fully  guaranteed  one-ton  truck;  double 
chain  drive;  125-inch  wheelbase;  9-  or  12-foot  loading 
platform,  as  desired.  Rear  wheels  are  furnished  with 
solid  tires  —  pneumatics  optional  at  higher  cost. 
The  Smith  Form-a-Truck  is  so  constructed  that  when 
installed  on  a  Ford  or  Maxwell  chassis,  the  Smith 
Form-a-Truck  rear  axle  carries  90%  of  the  load. 
Records  of  service  from  thousands  of  owners  show  an 
-operating  cost  per  ton  mile  of  5c;  a  tire  mileage  of  six 
to  eight  thousand  miles  per  set;  a  gasoline  mileage  of 
12  to  .18  miles  per  gallon;  an  average  speed  of  12  to  15 
miles.per  hour  in  actual  farm  service.  Smith  Form-a- 
Truck  is  doing  work  in  a  few  hours  which  requires 
horse-drawn  service  all  day  to  accomplish. 
On  long  trips  to  town,  instead  of  starting  away  at 
three  or  four  in  the  morning  and  getting  back  at  seven 
or  eight  at  night,  the  man  who  uses  Smith  Form-a- 
Truck-  can  easily  make  the  trip  in  the  morning  and 
have  his  Smith  Form-a-Truck  for  general  work  around 
the  farm  the  balance  of  the  day. 
Smith  Form-a-Truck  not  only  goes  anywhere  horse- 
drawn  vehicles  can  go,  but  many  places  where 
]  horses  would  be  stuck.  It  hauls  a  bigger  load  and 
/  saves  not  only  time,  but  m  the  number  of  men  em¬ 
ployed  to  do  the  hauling  you  must  have  done. 
You  can  equip  the  Smith  Form-a-Truck  chassis  with  any  regular 
or  special  type  body,  and  as  a  special  feature  to  farmers,  we  are
