Special sale price— to build a motor that gives more power and speed with less gasoline consumption. That is the wonder of the new Twin-Ignition, high-compression motor by Nash! Instead of stepping up power-ability and speed- ability by increasing the motor’s size (and thereby increasing gasoline consumption)— Nash developed entirely new principles of high compression motordesign, and gained more power, more speed—with LESS gasoline consumption. In doing this, Nash also achieved a motor that is not dependent on special high-priced fuels for successful operation. The Twin-Ignition motor uses any gasoline that you want to buy, or that local conditions make it necessary to buy. All Advanced and Special Six “400"" models, in- cluding the beautiful Special Six 4-door Sedan portrayed above, have Twin-Ignition motors. And they perform with a dash and a spirit and an enthusiasm that only the market’s costliest cars can equal. »-NASHAOO CHICKERING MPICO Used for a short time in Ampico recording 1t Just like new __Res e 31850 Special | | | | Chickering Other Features Salon Bodies - Twin-Ignition motor - High compression « Aluminum alloy pistons (fnvar Strut) « T-bearing crankshaft (hollow crank pins)-Houdaille and Lovejoy shock absorbers (exclusive Nash- mounting) « Nash Special Design front and rear bumpers - All ex- terior metalware chrome plated over nickel WALLACE MOTOR COMPA Distributors Retail Salesroom, 1709 L Street, N.
