IT'S AN ECONOMY C H A M P I O N , TO O I
Jetaway-equlpped Oldsmoblles rocketed to
double victory In 19S6 Mobllgas Economy Run!
HERE'S A CANDIDATE for the most talked-about "secret"
of all time! It's the secret of the smoothness- the reolutionary
second coupling in Oldsmobile's new Jetaway Hydra-Matic!
Oldsmobile first used a fluid coupling to cushion automatic
gear transitions in the original Hydra-Matic Drive. And it
was this famous transmission that opened the door to the
whole era of automatic driving.
AW, in Oldsmobile's new Jetaway, not one, but two fluid
couplings harness the go-power of the mighty Rocket Engine
soften the surge of Rocket action!
Fluid in the second coupling fills and spills with jetlike speed cushions gear transitions
so they're almost imperceptible! In other words, Jetaway seconds the motion gives
you all the flow of fluid, yet retains all the solid, thrilling go of gears!
NEW DUAL DOWNSHIFTING FOR EXTRA SAFETY!
What's more, Jetaway features new dual downshift action at traffic and cruising speeds
to split-second the motion, too. Just wait till you try it, teamed with Oldsmobile's new
Rocket Engine 240 horsepower strong, charged with a 9.25-to-l compression ratio
delivering a breath-taking 350 lb.-ft. of torque!
JETAWAY SMOOTHNESS . . . BEAUTY TO MATCH !
You'll go for the glamor of Oldsmobile, too!
There's massive magnificence and solid assurance
in the advance-design "Intagrille Bumper." It's
two front bumpers in one for protection high and
low an Oldsmobile first, an Oldsmobile exclusive
more unmistakable evidence of Oldsmobile's
stvling leadership! And it's all underscored by
Oldsmobile's ruggedly-built, quality-built chassis
featuring sturdy Six-Point Suspension to increase riding comfort and roadability.
Sum it all up performance, power and appearance you've got to go some to equal
it! Yet Oldsmobile prices start right down with many models in the low-price field
and value is right up with' the highest at resale time! Stop at our showroom for a
demonstration, now!
