For months the word has been getting around: “Dodge
has done it! Wait and see!”
Now the new ’55 Dodge is here . . . and the promise
is fulfilled. You’ll know it from your very first glimpse of
its sleek silhouette—longer, lower, and far more beautiful
than anyone dreamed!
Here is a ear that captures the flair of the future in
the bold forward thrust of its hood, in the sweep of its
rear deck and twin-jet taillights.
Here is a car that introduces the new outlook in motor
car styling, with a swept-back New Horizon windshield
that surrounds you in a glass cockpit.
Here is the car of a hundred surprises, whose taut and
eager beauty is matched by exciting new developments
that put the future at your fingertips.
Dodge has done it! See the new ’55 Dodge today.
