It embraces big car 6tyle. It provides big car riding comfort. 'It embodies big car quality in unseen parts. It includes big car perform ance even to the point of developing big car power and traveling at big car speed. It is offered by a brand new automobile tbe New Pontiac Big Six. Tbc Pontiac Big Six represents more than a new assembly of gears and gadgets. Of course, some people delight in speci fications. Pontiac's new specifications will open their eyes. But these specifications are only a fraction of what the Pontiac Big Six brings into the picture. They fail to hint at the luxury, the beauty and the pride of ownership upon which Pontiac's appeal to the American public is based. Frankly, the New Pontiac Big Six was designed to appeal to a certain group. True, every motor car owner in America . will find in it many tilings to admire. Two-car families will find it an ideal second car. But the group for which it is primarily intended is made up of people who are beginning to move up in the. world. Their wants are enlarging. Their ideas of beauty and luxury are growing. Many of them will soon make the first important step up in the quality of their cars. The New Pon tiac Big Six was designed for them. These up-and-coming Americans arc continually on the lookout for new, more arresting style. The Pontiac Big Six comes to them entirely new in appearance. Stunning new bodies by Fisher contribute to the big car beauty and big car style pre sented by the car as a whole. 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 by Fisher are famous the world over. It 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 ad justable drivers1 scats. Forward-looking Americans can be satisfied only with a car (hat comes close to mechanical perfection. Let's see how this great new Pontiac meets this par ticular demand. It is a six, but more than just a six. It is a six with the added power of a larger L-head engine and the added smoothness imparted by a dynamically balanced, counter-weighted crankshaft and the famous Harmonic Balancer.' It is a six with the added efficiency and silence achieved by means of the G-M-R cylinder head. 1 1 is a six with the added cold-weather advantages provided by the cross-Mow radiator, thermostatically controlled. From fan to rear axle, its "line of drive" is in accurate dynamic balance. Its new brakes are of the internal expand ing 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 watch it accelerate alongside the finest cars on the road. You can test its power under any conditions, confident of its ability to pull through. Meanwhile it continues to pro vide that unmatched dependability for which every Pontiac since the first one has been famed. Only a few high lights in its con struction have been mentioned. Just enough to prove that the Pontiac Big Six is entirely new and capable of meeting pro gressive Americans' demand. But the amazing thing about it is that it gives so much big car luxury, style and perform' ance at prices which come within practi cally everyone's reach!
