U(ht colored plastic» are uaed to fine effect. Completely redesigned and re styled, the Chrysler line for 1940 represents what the company con siders its outstanding achievement in beauty. It is, in fact, an entirely new line with beauty so definitely the motif that in all its advertising and sales promotion efforts the com pany refers to the cars as the “Beau tiful Chryslers for 1940”. Along with its improved appearance, the car has been bettered mechanically in many respects. The result is that it has an improved performance, added com fort, greater safety and superlative riding qualities to match its eye appeal. Six models, comprising a total of 26 body styles, are offered. These are designated as the Royal, Windsor, Traveler, New Yorker, Saratoga and Crown Imperial. The Royal is offered in the Three- passenger coupe, Six - passenger coupe, Six-passenger Victoria, Six- passenger sedan, Eight-passenger sedan and Eight-passenger sedan limousine. The Windsor has ill these body styles, plus a Six-passenger convertible coupe. Body styles in the Traveler are the Three-passenger coupe. Six - passenger coupe. Six- passenger Victoria, and Six-pas senger sedan. In the New Yorker all these may be had plus a Six - pas senger convertible coupe. The Sara toga comes in but one body style, a Six-passenger sport formal, with combination leather and cloth trim. The Crown Imperial, corresponding to last year’s Custom Imperial, lists a Six-passenger sedan, Eight-pas senger sedan and Eight-passenger sedan-limousine. Chrysler’s “Cruise and Climb” transmission (overdrive) is offered as extra equipment at added cost in all models save the Royal and Traveler and is standard in the Crown Im perial. The famous Fluid Drive, introduced with such marked success last year in the Custom Imperial and later made available in the Imperial models, is offered in the New Yorker and Saratoga as extra equipment at added cost and is standard in the Crown Imperial. In all cases where Fluid Drive is used, overdrive is essential. All models are similar in appear ance, differing only in size and the quality and variety of trim and equipment.
