The new DeVanx 80, built by Contlnental-De Vaux company, a subsidiary of Continental Motors corpo
ration, will he sold In Medford by the Sabln-Rliftlt Motors, Inc. The models will be on display the last ot
the coming week at the Sabln-Rindt showroom at 32 North Riverside.
The Contlnental-De Vaux "Red
Seal" engine, six cylinders, develops
80 horse-power at 3400 R.P.M., and
Is one of the most powerful motors
used In any medium priced automo
bile. This power plant is directly
responsible for the dynamic perform
ance of the De Vaux 80. Vibration
is practically eliminated by the use
of live rubber engine mountings.
The De Vaux 80 incorporates many
new improvements which make for
greater comfort, easier and more
economical operation. Free-wheeling
in all forward speeds, constant-mesh,
silent second transmission, a new
type instrument panel with "Watch-
Dial" instruments, "Aero -Line" bodies
and other 1933 Innovations are re
sponsible for the beauty and per
formance of the new car. "Startlx,
the automatic key switch, and ther
mostatically controlled ride-regulator
may be had at a slight extra ex
pense to the purchaser.
The bodies used on the De Vaux
80 are completely streamlined. The
windshields are slanted, and the
reveals, panels and fenders are grace
fully curved, giving better perform
ance, due to the fact that .wind-resistance
is diminished at high speeds.
The bodies are two Inches wider In
both front and rear 'compartments
and three persons are accommodated
with ease In the front seat. The
over-all height of the sedan is
barely 68 Inches and that of the
convertible coupe Is only 64 Inches,
making it one of the lowest and
therefore one of the safest cars
built.
Form-fitting cushions with extrs
deep seat backs are used In all
models to assure the maximum In
riding comfort. Arm rests, robe
rails, assist cords, dome lights and
other Interior appointments make
the De Vaux 80 one of the most
luxurious of motor cars.
Cam-and-lever steering. Identical
to that used by the highest priced
cars, will be used In all models.
With this type of gear, road shock
to the steering wheel Is eliminated.
This method of gearing also brings
the wheels back to center after
turning without the driver touching
the wheel. Smaller wheels and
larger tires, 17x5.60, allow greater
steering ease.
With the appointment of Sabln
Rindt Motors, Inc., as De Vaux dealer
In this locality, another link Is
forged In the Continental -DeVaux
dealer chain which la growing rapidly.

Following the O. I. Oates Auto
company's special demonstrations and
free moving pictures showing the
manufacture and performance of the
new cars, a large portion of southern
Oregon's motor-minded men and wo
men have been converted Into Ford
V-8 enthusiasts.
C. E. Gates, in an Interview Sat
urday, mad the following state
ments; "The new Ford V-8 Is certainly
a sensation all over the country and
never before have competitors gone
so far in their remarks pertaining
to any competitive automobile, as
they have against the new Ford,
which certainly shows that the car
is of the highest type,
"The Ford Motor company la not
tied up In the present car by any
outside patent holder. Production
on the new automobile la Increasing
as rapidly as new machinery can be
Installed for manufacture of the car.
"Practically all of the dealers In
the state of Oregon have demon
strators at the present time, and next
Tuesday the Portland branch starts
assembling the new Ford car. This
branch is one of the smallest in the
United States and Is practically the
last orancn starting operations.
"Saturday morning, May 7th, we
received our first demonstrator and
have been demonstrating steadily
every lew minutes, and it Is surmis
ing the way people are thrilled by
its penormance. one party who had
an order In for one and had about
decided not to wait, was so thrilled
after driving It that he said If neces
sary he would wait six months before
he would take another make of car.
Everyone who rode In this car
said It was worth waiting for and It
was the sensation of automobile
manufacture. Nothing anywhere near
It in performance had ever been
built.
"Other manufacturers say 'Why
waltr Just have a ride In It and
you have your answer. . It Is the
lsst word in automobiles, the car
you have dreamed of, but neveT ex
pected to see.
"This is our first demonstrator and
deliveries will be coming soon. Fac
tory is getting Into production with
amazing speed and we will soon have
cars on our floor for delivery. Have
a ride In our demonstrator and you
will sure get the answer to the ques
tion 'Why wait?'"
SANDERSON FLOOR
New model Pont lac coupes, sedans
and coaches recently received by the
Sanderson Motor company are now
on display at the garage showrooms
at 207 South Riverside.
Entirely new lines character! re the
1033 Pontlac with Its syncro-mesh
transmission, free wheeling and ride
control features, and according to B
L. "Sandy" Sanderson, they are out
standing In the field of popular
priced cars on the market today.
Complete servicing for sixes and
eights Is offered by the Sanderson
Motor company.
As a general rule, few motorists
concern themselves with obscure
mechanical details of design and
construction. Yet every owner should
be Interested In the pistons Intro
duced by Studebaker in its new
Dictator Eight and Studebaker Six
models. They are cast iron electro
plated with soft metal. This con
struction not only contributes to
engine efficiency, but saves in engine
maintenance and materially prolongs
the life of the car.
According to TJ, S. Armstrong of
Armstrong Motors, Inc., the new
Studebaker dealer here, the new
electro-plated pistons pioneered by
Studebaker are particularly welt
suited to Its smaller engine models.
They permit a closer-fitting, freer
acting and self-lubrlcatlng piston
surface, which practically eliminates
the possibility of scoring or piston
slap.
"In design and dimensions, the
new piston Is identical with the
plain cast-iron piston formerly used
by Studebaker, but has a coating of
soft metal one one-thousandth of
an Inch (.001) thick, which provides
a glass-smooth surface and pro
motes frlctlonless efficiency between
the moving surface and the cylinder
block.
"Because of this protective layer,
the new piston allows of a tit two
one -thousand tns of an inch (.003)
closer than before, resulting In a.
clearance of leas than half that
formerly required with the old type
piston (.0015 of an Inch as against
.0035 of an Inch). The tremendous
advantage of a 'tighter piston which
will not score, even under unusually
severe conditions, la obvious.
"Before giving their final approval
to this new piston, Studebaker en
glneers subjected It to the most
rigid laboratory, proving ground and
road tests. For 400 consecutive
hours, a Studebaker motor, equipped
with the new electro-plated pistons,
was operated with wide open throt
tle on a dynamometer.
"This test Is conceded to be one
of the toughest to which an angina
can be subjected."
