pose the radiator grill. which is "
shaped with slight forward curve
at the base. The radiator shell is
lacquered to match the color of the
bodies and has a chromium moulding
outlining its inner edge. Mounted on
the radiator is an ornament. the wa

Bullet Type Lamps
The individuality of the six is en-
ptasized by close mesh radiator
grill Of chromium finish. behind
which the radiator core is concealed
Bullet type headlamps are mounted
on windstream standards that flow
into the curves of the front tenders.
Front tenders are deeply skirted
their curves at the side meeting those
of the radiator shell, then flow down
to the running board level, meeting
it in practically horizontal line.
The rear tenders also are balanced,
closely following the contour of the
wheel. A skirt on the rear tenders
has q metal lining that conceals the
rear chassis parts from view. All
other parts of the chassis formerly
exposed are also concealed to add to
the newly attained picture of unity Of
design. Windshield and pillars slope
backward, with the front door follow
ing the same lines. Doors extend to
The running board. eliminating the
Gust apron.
The finished appearance of the
rear ends is accentuated on five
wheel models by a spare tire mounted
en- a sloping carrier, the tire being
fitted with a metal tire cover. Still
other models are equipped with a
built-in trunk.
Gadgets Automatic
An improved automatic choke, au-
tomato spark. automatic water tenn
perature control and automatic car
puretor heater are among the many
features that add to the comfort and
safety of the driver. The new auto
r,atic water temperature control Is
operated by a bellows-type thermostat
that by-passes the water when the
engine is cold, circulating it through
The engine and not the radiator until
an efficient operating temperature is
reached.
The six cylinder engine develops
80 horsepower and the straight eight
90 horsepower. Top speeds in both
cars are higher. Improved downdraf1
carburetion not only increases power
and acceleration under all traffic
conditions. but gives greater starting
efficiency.
Among other mechanical features
are softer and smoother braking
easier steering: riding ease improved
through free-acting, threaded spring
shackles; double-action hydraulic
shock absorbers; a quiet second speed
synchro-mesh transmission; a gene
rator of ample charging capacity, oil
filter: air cleaner and carburetor in
take silencer; engine driven fue
pump and gear type oil pump. All
sheet metal parts are rustproofed be-
fore being lacquered or enameled.

or six wheels, trunk standard: five
