Dodge cars have always been a prominent fector in the motoring life of the
American family because they have been dependable. And that same de
pendability is the foundation of this latest Dodgs Brothers Six with its silent,
sturdy and safe Mono-Piece Steel Body of unusual spaciousness, with wide doors
and windows, abundant head-room, leg-room and elbow-room. Under the hood
is a sturdy, dependable motor that gives it smooth, flexible, powerful per
formance. And it is a safe car to drive with its weatherproof internal hydraulic
brakes that are always positively equalized. Yet, with all the advanced quality of
its design and construction, with all its typical Dodge dependability, the price is
"lower than for any other closed car ever included in the Dodge Brothers line.
