Lanham, Mgr. -$4,400 .1,600 Homes of Character 1/5 of a Car’s Cost is in the Engine Stubebaker builds all its own engines ——— The Studebaker Standard Six Coach (Unit-Built) is priced so low ($1195) because engine, body and other vital parts are built by Studebaker on a One-Profit basis HAT’S why Studebaker cars today rep- resent the soundest automobile invest- ment on the market. The illustration shows how One-Profit goes to the very basis of economical motor-car manufacture. These important One-Profit savings are possible only because Studebaker has more than $100,000,000 in net assets concentrated on the economical production of quality cars. Studebaker’s Unique Facilities Few motor car “manufacturers” have foundries, forges, etc, to make their own engines—yet one- fifth of the cost of an sutomobile is in the engine. Even fewer build their own bodies—yet one-third dthemd’lnrhhthebody. Not only does Studebaker make all bodies, and al} engines used in Studebaker cars, but also all clutches, gear sets, springs, differentials, steering gears, brakes, axles, gray-iron castings and drop forgings. Only Ford in thé low-price field and Studebaker in the fine<car field enjoy the benefits of such complete manufacturing facilities. One-Profit Vaiue These facilities enable Studebaker to manufacture quality cars on a One-Profit basis. They enable Studebaker to eliminate the profits of outside parts and body makers. Many major savings are thus effected and passed on to the ultimate buyers of Studebaker cars in the form of higher quality and lower prices. Unit-Bsilt Construction Studebaker facilities resalt, too, in Unit-Built con- struction—in cars designed, engineered and built as units. The hundreds of parts used in a Studebaker car function together as a unit, resulting in longer life, greater riding comfort and higher resale value Scores of thousands of miles of excess transports- tion thus are bailt into Studebaker cars. Abways Kept Up-to-Date Because all phases of manufacture are directly under Studebaker control, Studebaker cars are constantly kept up-to-date. We add improvements regardless of the calendar—we do not save them up for spectac- ular annual announcements which make cars arti- ficially obsolete. Resale values are thus stabilized. Rock Bottom Time-Payment Rates Leading bankers, recognizing Studebaker stability, have made money available for financing Stude- baker cars at low interest. They know Unit-Built cars bought at One-Profit prices and kept constantly up-to-date are exceptionally fine risks. Therefore no car in the world is able to offer lower time-payment rates than Studebaker. Studebaker Standard Six Coach 31195 $ o b fuctory The Federal excise tax on automobiles will be reduced March 29th. The Government must be paid its full tax on every car delivered at retail prior to that date. To enable Studebaker purchasers to benefit at once from the tax reduction, Studebaker will pay the Government the differential in tax for all who take delivery of Stude- baker passenger cars between now and March 29th. $500 and more of every $1000 you pay for a car goes for engine and body 1/3ofaCar’sCost World’s Most Powerful Car of its Size and Weight ASED upon the rating of the N.A.C.
