Not Extravaganza

Do such things seem
extravaganza They are
not. All those extra doh
lars save more dollars for
our buyers.
They result in the cars
you see, in the prices and
values we offer. Nothing
else in the field can com
pare.
Those values have re-
suited in a demand for
$50, 900 cars per year.
That volume cuts our
costs in two, as compared
with limited production.
The cause Of over
prices - UNDERWRITERS -
is not lavish expenditure.

you the greatest value in the fine-car
