Smith had some queries, too. “I'd like to know,” he said, watch Ing me shift into second on a hill, power unless it has speed, thus you gear it down with a transmission. Gears will not mesh unless they are nearly at the same speed. In order for a quiet shift, therefore, in dropping back to ‘sec- ond’ on a hill you must first speed up the cluteh by: speding up the mo- tor, so that the countershaft tnter- mediate gear will run the same speed as the intermediate sliding xear, and mesh with it. ‘This ts the rough idea, but {f.vou will remember {t you will find gear-shifting an easy matter.

This is perfectly understandable when you really know the car, what itis like and what it does. Ie is unlike all other cars. With a touring car weight, ready for the road, of 2875 pounds, the Chrysler Six can be driven in comfort at 60 miles and upwards over rutted roads and cobbled streets. Two advanced features contribute materi- ally to the greater satisfaction enjoyed by Chrysler owners: a new type of spring mounting with rear springs close to the hubs and parallel to the wheels and the Chrysler-Lockheed hydraulic self-equalizing four-wheel brakes. \ Owners will tell you what these typical Chrysler features mean in finer riding quali- | ties and greater security of control.
