With Seven New and Exclusive Features THE DAY OF HIGH PRICES FOR FINE CARS HAS PASSED Sfudebafeer New Series 18 Cars, with seven new, special and exclusive improvements are Fine Cars, warranted by us to completely satisfy the most particular and fastidious persons. W e believe these cars represent the greatest automobile values ever offered to the buying public, and that persons accustomed to paying $2000 or $3000 for cars will, upon examination, concede that these Studebakers equal A N Y such cars in quali- of material, design, workmanship and finish, and so concede the truth of our statement that THE D A Y OF HIGH PRICES FOR FINE CARS HAS PASSED. N E W S T O R M C U R T A IN S . O f the recent Blackmore design and- patent, opening with the doors and thereby preventing crouching and crushed hats, Studebaker. we believe, is the first maker to oner this improvement as standard equipment. Studebaker has centered its great resource« andexocrience o o O N E BASIC D E S IG N , with all pacts interchangeable for both the P U U K and SIX, except the motor. One equipment of machinery, tools, character of manufacturing operations and quality of material suffices for both models. IM P R O V E D B O D Y A N D U P H O L S T E R Y . The body is ele gantly finished and equipped— inside and out. The handsome toot rail, wide scuff plates, wide doors, handsome door trim, carpeting, etc., all demonstrate quality and refinement. The upholstery is semi- glazed, straight-grained, genuine leather, tnade to special Studebaker forms, with the best curled hair and long coiled springs. Tonneau carpet all wool, bound with leather instead of cheap, raveling thread stitch. The top is made of the finest grade silk .mohair, bound with leather edging, a feature found on tew cars at any price.

W e guarantee our cars to give absolute satisfaction,pro vided they receive the care a highly developed piece ot machinery should receive.

Studebaker has $13,000.000 invested in the most efficient rfnd modern plants in w hich it manufactures all of its engines, axles, transmissions, differentials, bodies and tops. Middlem en’s profits (parts makers) included in the parts of assembled cars and small manutacturers cars are almost e n tire ly e lim in a te d in Studebaker selling prices. It is nec essary to pay from 50% to 100% mere than Studebaker prices for cars of corresponding value. Studebaker lubrication has been further improved. The system is positive and eliminates all lubrication troubles. Waste through the exhaust is overcome and practically no surplus oil reaches the com bustion chamber to burn and form carbon. The chassis frame is the same strong light construction which has characterized all Studebaker cars. The perfection of our chassis de sign is convincingly proven by satisfaction given in over 285,000 S tu debakers produced and sold. Seven New Improvements and Additions.
