Dont you know? It bolts just behind the insert on the Smitzler Fargon. :

Looks like a practical joke to me.

No, no its a serious add. Ford produced them to help the exceptional performance of the Smitler Fargon. When the car first went into production, there were concerns that because of the curvature of the earth & its relation to the gravitational pull of the moon, using a calculation of emerious/ 5.453 (pie*speed of light/bubbles in a bottle of fanta) this is plainly visable.
