In a very real sense, too, it compares with no other car or class, because NO car, cither here or abroad, provides features that are comparable. To enjoy these ad vantages you must buy THIS car. for else where they simply do not exist. Revolutionary Nete Principles of Design 1. For the first time since the invention ' of the automobile, the chassis and body of The Victory are a single integral unit the wide, deep Victory chassis frame, (lush with the lines of the body, replaces the customary body sills. (Heretofore, the body was mounted on a sill and both in turn mounted on the chassis.) 2. Fof the first time in history, battle ship construction (i. e., double steel ' wiills) is here applied to the motor car. Spectacular Performance The results of these, and other basic in norations are astonishing in their effect on everv phase of motor car value; beauty, comfort, safety, strength and most im pressive and important of all ptrform ame ihtlj. I i I l'a dirniifir isaliiuinl I ftuitk I 'CY-t;.,i. v...,- f Friendly Soiviee" With chassis and body a single unit, there are 330 fewer parts 175 pounds less weight and n extremely low center of gravity. The results are greater motor efficiency increased power quicker pick-up greater stability and flexibility in relation to load an easier car to handle a faster car to drive! 21 miles to the gallon at 2 5 miles per hour is precisely what you can expect with sustained high speed all day long at instant call! Drive over robbles and await the usual discomfort it will never occur! The Victory is the smoothest riding car, for its type, ever built. Safe, Strong and Stable Because the chassis frame conforms pre cisely with the body lines and because of the car's low center of gravity (weight close to the ground) The Victory is re markably stable tipping, skidding and swayinjr are reduced to a point positively negligible! Turn a sharp corner and you will'under stand! And the double steel walls mean double protection in case of accident double the safety of any type yet known. A staunch body, wuh doors that close with a substantial ar'1 non-metallic snap. Quiet an J Comfortable The aim bf all engineering is simplicity, L. C. uth and Depot St. for simplicity means economy strength SILENCE. There are ooly 8 major parts in The Victory body and they are welded into a single unit. Not a joint to squeak of rattle. A silent body. , And Dodge Brothers powerful new six cylinder motor specially engineered for The Victory preserves this luxurious quietness at all speeds. A Car of Striking Beauty Body and chassis built as a single unit without the customary body sill permits lower over-all height with liberal head room and road-clearance. Splash shields, a constant source of noise and annoyance are replaced by the wide, deep Victory chassis frame; wide, heavy gauge one-piece fenders and drum-type head-lamps are provided. Upholstery, hardware, instruments, color combina tions and othef appointments satisfy the most exacting demands of style and good taste. Indeed, you have a distinct and thrilling impression that the car in which you are riding is long, low, swift and safe a car of surpassing originality and smartness down to the smallest detail. 1095 4-DOOR SEDAN, F.
