It is offered by a brand new uutomobilethe New Pontine Big Six. ' :,: -The l'ontiac Big Six represents more than a; new awHcmbly of gears and gadgets. ' Of course, some people delight in lists of spccifi ca4ions. l'ontiac'8 new specifications will open their eyes. But these specifications are only a fraction of what the l'ontiac Big Six brings Into the. picture. They fail to hint at the luxury the beauty and the pride of ownership upon which Pontiae's appeal to the American public i based. Frankly, the New Pontiac Big Six xvas dctiigncd to appeal to a, certain group. True, every motor car owner in America will find in it manv things to admire. Two-ear families w ill find il an ideal second car. But the group ' for which it is primarily intended is made up of people w ho are beginning to move tip in the world. Their wants are enlarging. Their ideas ol beautv and luxury are growing. tant step up in the quality of their cars. The New Pontiac Big Six was designed for them. ' . 'These up-and-coming Americans are con .' tiriually on the lookout for new, more arrest ring style' The Pontiac Big Six comes lo them ..entirely, new In 'appearance. Stunning new Vhodics hy Msher contribute to the big car ; beauty and big car style presented by the car ',; as a whole. . .;'.; i Progressive people are seeking greater luxury. The Pontiac Big Six offers them the luxury, the deep, richly upholstered cushions and the charming appointments for which bodies hy Fisher are famous the world over. 1 1 provides the smooth-riding qualities of a car 167 inches in overall length, with accurately balanced rotating mechanical parts and such advanced comfort features as adjustable drivers' seals. Forward-looking Americans can be satis fied only with a car that comcs-closc to me chanical perfection. Let's see bow this great new Pontiac meets this particular demand. It is a six, but more than just n six. Il is a six with the added power of a larger L-hcad engine and the added smoothness imparted, by a dynamically balanced, counter-weighted crankshaft and the famous Harmonic Bal ancer. It is a sis with the added effici ?ncy and silence achieved by means of the G-M-K cylinder head. It is a six with the adtled cold weather advantages provided by the ci oss-flow radiator, thermostatically controlled. .',..'..' From fan to rear axle, its "line of drive" is in accurate dynamic balance.. Ill new brakes' are of the internal-expanding four wheel type which neither mud nor rain nor ice can prevent from operating efficiently As for its performance, you can drive it at express train speed. You can walch it accelerate alongside the finest cars on the road. You can test its power under any con ditions, confident of its ability lo pull through. Meanwhile it continues to provide that unmatched 'dependability for which every Pontiac since the first one has heen famed. ' . Only a few highlights in its construction have heen mentioned. Just enough to prove that the Pontiac Big Six is entirely new and capable of meeting progressive Americans' demand. But the amazing thing about il is v j -that it gives so much big car luxury, style and . ' performance at prices tchich come tcithin practically everyone's reach!
