Mercury Announces All-New Models For 7949 Season The white ant of tropical coun tries produces more than 88.000 eggs each day during hatching season. The all-new Mercury for 1949 will be exhibited April 29. in dealer showrooms from coast to coast. The new models are being pre sented in four body styles. These Include a four-door sport sedan, a suc-passenger coupe, a six-passenger convertible coupe and a station wagon. The new Mercury Is powered by a 110 horsepower V-8 engine designed exclusively for Mercury. Only five feet two inches high, the new Mercury presents a long, low silhouette. Although the outside dimensions are only slightly greater than pre ceding models, styling and engi neering provide vastly more usable space for passengers and luggage. The front seat, for example, is nearly eight Inches wider. The rear seat has been widened nearly three inches. Increased roominess was achieved by widening the body to fender width from front to rear, a feature which enhances the general stream lined appearance. The body is of reinforced, all- steel construction, mounted on a newly developed X-type frame with special K members for added strength. New spring suspension brings a new degree of smoothness to the ride. Individual front wheel sus pension of the swinging arm. coll spring type, is combined with air plane style, direct action shock absorbers. Larger hydraulic brakes on the new Mercury represent a new high in operating ease and safety. They are of the duo-servo or self-energizing type. They require less pedal pressure and promote even distribu tion of wear on brake linings. The new heating system doubles warm air output through the wind shield defroster, insuring an ade- quate supply even in coldest tern- ! peratures. i Other refinements include triple sealing of doors, spring counterbal anced rear deck lid. outside door handles that operate more easily, Instruments grouped in front of the driver, wrap-around bumpers and a foolproof door locking system which permits either front door to be opened with a key. For the first time Mercury offers factory installed overdrive on all models as optional equipment. The overdrive unit provides greater gaso line economy, quieter operation, higher top speed and longer engine life. It becomes operative at speeds over 25 miles per hour.
