B $2185 2385 2385 2385 2485 2085 2088 These reductions have been made because the factory expects to announce in the late Summer, new cars which though identical in size and similae in appearance, will have enough mechanical changes to classify them as new models. In view of these reduced prices and of the fact that the new cars will be priced higher than the present cars were before this reduction, the pur- chaser of a Packard Six hasnow notonlya great price advantage, but also im- mediate use of the most successful and popular car'Packard has ever built, and at the lowest price at which new Packard cars have ever been offered. Your used car will be accepted as cash and if of average value will more than make the down payment on the new car. Your cash outlay will then be only $100 or so a month on a Packard Six which the average owner keeps more than four times the payment period.
