" SAFETY CHASSIS It has won the enthusiasm . of leading engineers/ The NEW STUTZ EADING American automotive engi- neers-of international reputation have praised this truly remarkable new car in the most enthusiastic of terms. For in this car, seers of the industry recognize the automobile of the future. And to this enthusiastic endorsement of The NEW STUTZ by the automotive engineering profession there has been added a public approval so instantaneous and decisive as to create a veritable sensa- tion. At all the leading automobile shows retail sales of The NEW STUTZ have broken all sales records for cars in its price-class. This immediate ac- { ceptance is conclusive evidence of the car's appeal to the practical * motorist. All this because The NEW STUTZ, while accepting nothing untried, nothing ex- perimental, is the most advanced, the most improved auto- mobile of a decade.
