6 THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE SATURDAY, MARCH 26, 1932 _ Nash Announces Five Entirely New! And Advanced Groups of Automobiles . 27 New Models, With ‘Slip- Stream’ Design, Incorpor- ate Many Innovations Nash Motors has announced five entirely new and radically advanced groups of automobiles. These cars are handled here by the Hedahl Motor company. ‘Twenty-seven new models, all marked by the long, low, “slipstream” design, perfected to minimize wind resistance, and replete with more than 100 additional advancements in| motor car engineering, are included | in_this presentation. Four straight-eight groups and a new big six series make up the new) line. Leading the presentation is the Ambassador Twin-Ignition Eight | series with 125 horsepower and a Wheelbase of 142 inches. The Ad-/| vanced Twin-Ignition Eight series with 133-inch wheelbase develops 125 | horsepower; the Special Twin-Igni- | tion Eight with 128-inch wheelbase, | 100 horsepower; the Standard! Straight-Eight with 121-inch wheel- | base, 85 horsepower, and the Big Six} on the extra long 116-inch wheelbase | affords 70’ horsepower. Silent, underslung worm drive axles —a major engineering advancement | of the Ambassador 8, Advanced 8 and} Special 8 series—are among the mos! important of the new Nash achieve- | ments. Other vital features of the entire! line include: new X-Dual, twist-proof | frames with the massive X-Dual | member extending practically the en- tire length of the chassis to virtually supply two frames in one and afford battleship strength; new dash-regu- lated, full range shock absorber con- trol; new Centrifuse, cast iron lined brake drums on all eights; aluminum alloy connecting rods, drilled for oil —an exceptionally costly engineering practice in all of the motors—and aluminum alloy pistons; silent, svn- chro-shift transmission and synchro- shift free wheeling; new improved carburetion with air-cooled gasoline lines; complete and unparalleled sound-proofing of all bodies and | chassis; new silent dual mufflers; larger tires on smaller, sturdier wheels, and scores of intriguing and valuable body and chassis refine- ments. The attractive V-shaped fronts of all the cars serve to split the wind at high speeds. Slanting windshields slip the air stream upward instead of offering a flat surface to air pres- sure, The sweeping curve of the roof line continues the slipping action. New Nash bodies are widest at their center, narrowing down toward the/ rear. | The new, underslung worm drive, which actually improves with use and} is one of the longest-lived, most silent | and trouble-free units known to mo- tor car engineering, permits two es- sential improvements. It reduces the over-all height of the cars without decreasing headroom, and makes it/ possible to cradle the rear seat in a} position ahead of the rear axle, in- stead of directly over it as in conven- tional bodies. Each inch that the new Nash cars have been lowered eliminates approximately 40 square inches of air pressure against the car at high speeds. In appearance the new models are @ revelation in trim symmetry. They are new from the ground up and re- veal strikingly attractive details in design. A few of these features in- clude: new color combinations, pro- nounced V-type frents; new head- light brackets and tie-bar; two horns mounted on lamp brackets; sing! bar bumpers front and rear; excep- tionally long, graceful hoods with door-type ventilators and concealed hood fasteners; slanting, non-glare |gress for appropriation of $120,000,000 Special 8 models; non-giare rear view mirrors; tailored weather strips around all doors; satin-finished, nickel trim robe rails and folding foot rests; deep pile carpets; silk assist cords and silk finish curtains; shirred door pockets and rubber pedal pads. Twin cowl ventilators are featured on all models and the improved park- ing brake lever is located convenient- ly at the left side of the front com- partment, clear of the left front door. The starter button is strategically lo- cated of the dash. All of the new sedan and coupe models are equipped with a built-in roof radio aerial. ASKS FEDERAL AID Representative Almon of Tuscum- bia, Ala., has introduced a bill in con- for advances to states to be used in emergency construction on federal- aid highways. TRAVELING SOME The nation’s 24,000,000 vehicles ex- | traveling clined 20 per cent as compared with the number of tourists in 1930, the American Automobile Association re- ports, ceeded their 1930 mileage during 1931 by more than 8,000,000 miles, the Na- tional Automobile Chamber of Com- merce reports. HIGHEST HIGHWAYS A new highway in southern Spain, circling the heights overlooking the Mediterranean near Granada, is to |be the highest in Europe. It is known as the Alpupjarra Road. the London, March 26.—The park- ing problem is no new puzzle to civilizatton.

Detroit, Mich., March 26.—Two en- tirely new lines of cars, a Hudson eight in three wheelbase lengths, and @ new Essex six, are announced by the Hudson Motor Car company for 1932, With completely modernized, streamlined bodies, a radically new rigid frame construction, new power Plant, transmission system, equip- ment and fittings, the Hudson and Essex cars for the coming season are lower, more powerful, faster, better in | @Ppearance and better equipped than jever before. The Hudson and Essex lines are handled in Bismarck by Sandin- Wilde Motors, Inc. Parallel in design but dimensioned |to suit their own characteristics, the Hudson and Essex cars are note- worthy for having introduced this year a real custom touch in the pop- ular price field. The Hudson Greater Eight engine, now mounted on 119, 126 and 132 inch wheelbase chassis, develops 101 horsepower at 3600 r.p.m., a gain of 14 horsepower over that of last year, and the Essex Six engine, on its 113 inch wheelbase chassis, develops 70 horsepower at 3200 r.p.m., “a gain of 10 horsepower over last year, Because of the high compression Essex Four-Door Special De Luxe Sedan | windshields; slip-stream fenders merging into massive steel-and-rub- ber running boards; refined fender and tail lights with two rear fender tail and stop lights on the Ambassa- dor 8, Advanced 8 and Special 8 models; smaller, sturdier demountable wood and wire wheels with larger tires; three-spoke, pressed, hard rub- ber covered steel steering wheels and tilted tire carriers. Outstanding engineering features, in addition to twin-ignition and oth- ef established Nash developments, in- clude: new, ribbed-type rear axles in Standard 8 and Big Six models; full range ride control operated from a convenient Jever on the dash, which opens and closes liquid control valves in the hydraulic shock absorbers and allows the driver to regulate spring action to suit any road or load condi- tion; effortless synchro-shift trans- mission with silent second gear and Perfected synchro-shift free wheel- ing; automatic chassis lubrication, which cares for vital chassis bearings as the car runs, in Ambassador 8, Advanced 8 and Special 8 models; ex- ceptionally long chassis springs with new metal spring covers on the big Eights. A new vacuum pump on the Ambassador and Advanced 8 models provides positive windshield wiper ac- tion at all speeds. Additional features are reinforced motor blocks; new camshafts pro- viding silent valve action; nine big main bearings in all Eights and sev- en main bearings in the Big Six; hol- lowed crankpins; new oil filters; im- proved water temperature control in the motor block to aid quick warm- up; new, air-cushion rubber motor mountings; exceptionally quiet fans; extra large axle bearings and pro- peller shafts; wider wheel treads and improved road shock eliminators to guard the famous Nash easy steering systems.

The use of the patented Hudson combustion chamber, the new mani- fold and improvements in the car- buretion system and balancing are responsible for power increase, smoothness and economy. Bodies of Steel Year by year these bodies have been made more and more completely of steel and the 1932 body is a cul- mination of this trend. The sheath- ing of the body is not relied upon for its strength, instead the Hudson and Essex bodies are built on a box girder structural skeleton to which the sheet steel body shell is rigidly and silently secured. Completely insulated for quietness as well as against engine fumes and drafts, the new Hudson and Essex bodies meet the new requirements which have been made Ltirapeied through selective free-wheeling. The integrity of the body is maintained through the life of the car by heavy box girder construction throughout. An unusually complete system of up- holstery spring suspension has been worked out. There are transverse, lateral springs which are mounted as a foundation for the vertical coil springs in the upholstery. This com- bination of horizontal and vertical springs gives a neutralizing action which greatly reduces the throw of the passengers in traveling over rough and uneven rpads. Four Colors Offered In planning the colors of the new models, black, of course, has been made available on all models of every car. In addition there are three oth- er basic colors—brown, blue and green—all optional with the pur- chaser. One of the important features is the new jnstrument board. This has been entirely re-designed so that the dials have figures that are two and a half times the usual size. A glance is all that is necessary to read them. ‘New on these cars for this year are such features as thermostatic car- buretor heat control, improved in- take manifold system, quick acceler- ation devices, anti-flood choke, in- take silencer, anti-back fire device, improved torsional vibration dampen- er, silent-second synchro-mesh trans- mission with selective free-wheeling, retractive reverse _ free-wheeling, triple-sealed oil cushion clutch, new double-drop frame with diagonal trussing, bigger brakes, dash-oper- ated ride control on shock absorbers, Tie PACEMAKERS | have captured the Shows! TRIUMPHAL PROGRESS has marked the introduction of the ew and greater Hudson Eight and Essex Super-Six from the nation’s first 1932 automobile show, in New York, straight down to the opening of the BISMARCK show .. . The public has paid the tribute of acclaim —and of increasing sales—to these two refreshingly new, beautifully fash- ioned and brilliantly performing Pacemakers. The 1932 Hudson Eight and Essex Super-Six appeal so stirringly to the universal appre- ciation of new beauty of line and color, new power and speed with safety, and new quality values far exceeding anything heretofore offer- ed in their respective price fields.

Have L-Head Engines The engines are L-head block quick vision instruments mounted on cast type, the Hudson eight having cylinder dimensions of 3 by 4% inches, and the Essex six, 2 15-16 by 4% inches. New cylinder heads are used this year incorporating a patented dome shape with special features which permit the high compression to be used in connection with standard fuel. Spark plugs are located over the exhaust valves at the hottest part of the cylinder, a fact which also contributes toward the feasibility of using the high compression ratios. Hudson and Essex pistons, as now designed, represent the culmination of years of study of aluminum alloy pistons by this organization, which pioneered the development. They are now made of a silicon-aluminum al- loy which is not only 10 per cent lighter than that formerly employed but also has the characteristics of be- ing glass hard and non-scoring and furthermore has an 18 per cent lower coefficient of expansion, thus making it possible to fit them tighter in- itially. A feature is the accuracy of workmanship in pistons and ing rod assembly. The piston for example, are lapped to an ou! round of less than three ten-thou- sandths of an inch.
