Smarter. More up-to-date. That's a difference you can see. Different in performance. More life. More spirit. More snap in pick- up. More security at high speeds. More ease and safety of control. That’s a difference you can feel. And a difference you'll thoroughly enjoy. Look around. Examine one car after another. Drive one car after another. Comparisons will certainly convince you that only Chrysler engineering is shle to give Chrysler results. advantages of new and important features which have been added to Oldsmobile’s engine. New down-draft carburetion brings increased power—with higher speed, faster acceleration, and greater smoothness. It also assures quick starting—summer or winter, And a new carburetor-silencer contributes to quieter operation, In addition, you are offered finer coach- work. Fundamental advancements in con- struction make Oldsmobile’s new Fisher bodies unusually strong, quiet, and service- able. New insulation makes them warmer And smartly tailored mohair or whipcord uphol- steries add to the attractiveness of the new Fisher body interiors. ‘These and other important new features represent extra value. For all are added to the tried and proved fundamentals of design which have won the confidence and praise of a quarter of a million Oldsmobile owners during the past three years. « + « Added Equipment and New Fine-Car Features Make It a Better Buy than Ever. Although lower price is an impor- tant factor in the new Oldsmobile’s greater value, it is, nevertheless, a secondary factor. Added equipment and new finecar features mean even more from an investment standpoint. For example, you are now offered an option of five wire or five demountable wood wheels on any Oldsmobile model you choose—at no extra charge. You are given the famous Syncro-Mesh non-clashing transmission—a feature here- tofore found only in higher priced cars.
