Yet, foolish as it seems, it's often done, and right here in Washington, too. Built to Endure The 1923 series Studebaker Special-Six Sedan, introduced in 1923, with 1923 refinements and betterments, well upholds the Studebaker tradition of fine coach building. Sterling quality of materials and the most skillful craftsman- ship are reflected inside and out, in the appearance of this car, in its sturdy construction and in its equipment. The handsome body, built by Studebaker, will last for years. There is no makeshift or compromise embodied in its manufacture—the quality of Studebaker materials, workman- ship and finish is never cheapened to meet a price. Upholstery is of highest grade mohair velvet plush, laid over soft, restful, ten-inch cushions. Thick carpets are harmonious in tone. Fittings include a vanity case, smoking set and vase. No body combines a greater degree .of luxury, enduring beauty and convenience. The Studebaker Special-Six chassis is practically unchanged in general design. It has no experimental features. It possesses the same mechanical excellence that has distinguished the Special-Six as the outstanding leader among quality cars at quantity prices. The name Studebaker stands for quality, durability, comfort and integrity. It will never appear on a jmakeshift job. 1923 MODELS AND PRICES—{. o. b. factoriss i $-Pase., 112° W.B., 40 H.P. | §-Pass. 119" W.B., S0 H. P, Touring... Se— ] il 'E tractive furnishing.
