Studebaker presents
the worlds greatest
L1ght-S1X automobile

nor years the evolution of the motor car has
been towards light SIX as the logical car
to meet public demand and Studebaker has
therefore designed and produced the car to fill this
requirement. The new Studebaker LIGHTS
is 6ve-passenger, six-cylinder, 40-horsepower
automobile of 112-inch wheelbase. 1t sets a new
standard of achievement in automobile engineer
ing for
refined and improved design
scientific distribution and exact balance of car
weight
quick acccicreton and power
--smootnness ard qu1etness of performance
ease of operation and control
economy Of fuel and maintenance
Before Studebaker engineers and executives
approved the LIGHT-SIX and released it for pro-
ductlon, tive sarnple models were built for extern
slve tests and experiments IS the laboratories
and Methods and Standards Department. as to
steels and materials, the Experimental Depaft-
ment as to dynarnometeg tests of motors, trans
missions, axes and chassis and then over so 900
miles OF roads Of every description throughout
the country.
While the cars demonstrated satisfactorily un-
der the strenuous tests in the East one was given
severer punishment in the Golden West A car
was driven across the country over the Rockies
to the Pacific Coast, where on CALIFORNIA; won
dertu roads, in the Yosemite and Sierras, it was
subjected to every trial and test which automo-
biles can encounter in the severest use.
In the mountains, its power, brakes and car
oureton at high attitudes proven satisfactory
in the sands and heat of the deserts OF New
Mexico and Arizona, power and carburetionat at low
attitudes and torrid heat were found correct.
Upon return to the factory the car was dis
assembled and every part inspected for wear and
oe1ects, with the gratifying revelation that there
were no oetects and that wear was negligible.
The car is manufactured complete in the new.
modern automobile plant, built by Studebaker at
south Bend, at cost which will ultimately reach
9loooo,ooo. This plant is equipped with new
machinery and every known mechanical appliance

for accurate and economical quantity production.
and is unexcelled in America in this respect
Studebaker uses materials of the best grade
obtanable to make the LIGHTS SIX the highest
quality, most durable and economical light car
yet produced
Liberal factors of safety have been used
throughout and motor vibration has been prac-
tlcally eliminated by unusually large crank
shaft, crankshaft bearings and light connecting
rods, and by machining all over the crankshaft
and connecting rods. This practice is a distinct
departure In six cylinder motor construction and
adds another precedent to Studebaker credit
The car weighs 24o0 pounds complete 1t is
balanced so perfectly that the weight resting on
the front wheels and the rear wheels is equal
within few pounds. This is also true regarding
the weight resting on the two right wheels and
the two left wheels. This perfect balance is partv
responsible for the remarkable riding qualities,
comfort and road-holding ability of this car.
The improved Studebaker intermediate trans
mission with long shifting lever, coupled with the
disc clutch and easily operated foot pedal make
the shifting OF gears easy and noiseless at all
engine speeds.
The body of the L1GET-SIX was designed
and is manufactured complete in the Studebaker
factory. 1t is sturdy, strong free from rattles
and VIII last indefinitely. 1t is upholstered in

IS OF superior quality throughout.
And Studebaker Has Created Another Pre-
cedent in Motor Car Values - the Studebaker
LlGHT-SLX is the first car at its price with
Cord Tires as Standard Equipment
There is genuine surprise awaiting the lover
OF motoring who sits at the wheel and drives this
Car, for it will perform other light weight
automobile has yet performed in running the
garnut Of speeds and hill climbing.
We offer this car in full confidence that it will
prove satisfactory in every respect and thereby
addto the prestige of the trade name "Studebaker'
Which has been household word for 68 years and
stands tor the best there is in automobile values.
