Make no mistake) Although most cars use the Fluid Drive principle that
Chrysler first introduced 12 years ago there's an all-important
'. tm difference in automatic aear shiftina todavl Chrvs or and on v Chrysler
gives you full control of your car. While others shift you up and
7", down even when you don't want to shift Chrysler's simple, cool-
running transmission takes its orders from you. Even at 12
miles an hour, in slow moving traffic, you're in high while others shift down to
lower gears. How much quieter your engine runs) How much more smoomlyl What a
difference in high-gear economy) Come see what Fluid Drive does for
you! Examine Chrysler workmanship . . . compare the quality of materials . . .
discover the benefits of Chrysler engineering! You'll find built-in value all the way through
that has no equal! Extra money's worth, we're sure, that will make
you a Chrysler buyer for life!
