It is one thing to reduce prices. Itis another to increase quality. Still another thing is to break records in But to do all three things at the same time is an accomplishment of triple inter- est to the public. The new Chandler Twentieth Century Sedan is the most important accomplish- ment in Chandler history—a magnificent, large-size, four-door Sedan that is priced less than a two-door Coach! Chandler be- lieves that the ultimate and logical closed car of all closed cars is the 4-door Sedan. Here is quality appeal plus price appeal —an ideal development in body-building on the perfected Chandler chassis— with the marvelous Pikes Peak Motor. This new Twentieth Century Sedan is as smart as anything that ever touched tires on a boulevard. Itis a picture of rich- ness to look at, and a thing of richness to ride in. The upholstery is fine, durable broadcloth. Chandler power, Chandler pick-up, Chandler hill-climbing, Chandler steering, Chandler brake action—all will open your eyes to motor car efficiencythat is com- pletely and faultlessly delightful. And with it all, you save money — whether you choose the Twentieth Cen- tury Sedan; the Metropolitan Sedan De Luxe or the Seven-Passenger Sedan; the Brougham, or one of the open models. Note these price reductions—then see and drive the cars. You Don’t Have to Pay a Penalty for Motor Luxury Chrysler type of rear spring mounting.
