is so light that a 100-pound woman could drive
all day in traffic without tiring.
The six-cylinder engine sits straightforward
and erect up front. Components which require
periodic service, such as distributor and spark
plugs, are visible and accessible even to, the
home mechanic. The neatness and simplicity
underhood, in fact, invites amateur tinkering
of a Saturday afternoon for those so inclined.
These, then, are the revolutionary new
comers that are out to expand the market
opened in recent years by Ramblers, Larks
and the legion of imports. Surprisingly, those
who formerly had the lush compact field to
. themselves don't worry much about the new
competition. . . .
America's two successful independent pro
ducers believe their strength lies in the variety
of models and accessories they offer compact
car buyers. Rambler has performed major
metallic surgery on the exterior of its 108-inch
; wheelbase model and on the slightly larger
Ambassador. It still lists the only four-door
' hardtop in the compact field, along with a
choice between six- and eight-cylinder
engines, air conditioning, reclining seats
and a wide variety of trim options, rang
ing from austere to luxurious. The company's
new three-seat station wagons feature a side
hinged door at the rear end for easy entrance.
In the smaller American series, a four-door
sedan has been added.
Studebaker, too, has been busy broadening
its line to take advantage of its first year of
renewed prosperity. It has high hopes, sales
wise, for its trim Lark convertible the only
one in its field as well as for a four-door
model which rounds out its wagon line. It also
has a choice of six- or eight-cylinder engines.
Exterior changes in the Lark are hardly dis
cernible, a policy followed in the belief that
buyers resent "forced obsolescence."
Despite the compact-car "revolution," the
big car will still dominate the American scene.
Family Weekly, October 25, J959
In fact, Detroit has spent record sums on its
revisions for 1960. Once again the "face lifts"
tend. to be conservative. Chromed geegaws
are conspicuously absent in most cases.
For individualists, most of the special mod
els such as the Chevrolet Corvette, Ford
Thunderbird, Studebaker Hawk, and Chrys
ler 300 are continued in addition to the Dodge
Dart, a new line in" the low-priced field,
The dart is a Plymouth-dimensioned car,
but with its own styling. It has in common
with other Chrysler models the company's
new unitized body structure, which is chassis
less except for a stub frame protruding in
front. This type of construction is exception
ally strong and serves as a firm mount for the
torsion-bar front suspension. .
Dart buyers can; choose engines ranging
from the newy inclined six to a powerful V-8
featuring ram-air induction. It works like a
supercharger in that the air and fuel mixture
is rammed into the engine at the speed of
sound when the throttle is opened.
Other notable advances on Chrysler-built
cars include an optional vacuum device that
automatically locks all doors when the engine
is started, a switch that will operate all four
flashing lights simultaneously for roadside
emergencies, and front seats that swivel auto
matically wheneveV the door is opened or
closed. More expensive Chrysler models offer
an "electroluminescent" instrument panel that
glows in the dark without light bulbs.
General Motors products continue the styl
ing themes set in 1959, but the exterior sheet
metal is new in most cases. In a design princi
ple established last year for manufacturing
economy, certain basic body parts, such as
the cowl structure, are interchangeable
between all models. Considering the many
external variations, this may be hard to visu
alize, but it can be proved by noting that
Cadillac and Chevrolet windshields ha
