Brilliant new styling is combined with outstanding riding comfort, in creased roominess, and sweeping mechanical improvements in the new line of Plymouth automobiles.
 Completely redesigned, the new Plymouth has a longer wheelbase for a better ride and more road sta- hiiity, but less front and rear over- hang for easier parking and garaging. While the silhouette has been low cred and the width decreased, there IS more head and leg room and seats are wider. Typical of Plymouth's many refnements is the ignition starter combination, with which a turn of the key starts the engine.
 The new Plymouths are sleek in appearance. New rear-end styling provides a graceful balance with the Horizontal grille lines which empha-

size the broadness of the front. Tenders which blend perfectly into body lines are nevertheless separate and detachable, thus avoiding sheet metal panels so costly to repair or replace.
 The new Plymouth line includes nine distinct automobiles. Special deluxe and deluxe types are on a 11S-inch wheelbase, one inch longer than last years. Special deluxe models are: four-door sedan, club coupe, convertible club coupe and station wagon. In the deluxe group are the four-door sedan and the club coupe. In addition, Plymouth will build three deluxe models on a brand new 111-inch wheelbase, a two-door sedan, three-passenger coupe, and a new body type, the Suburban.
 The 97-horsepower engine has inn

proved performance and efficiency with new design cylinder head which increases compression ratio to z to l. A new chrome plated compression piston ring reduces cylinder wear and provides greater protection during the break-in per- iod. There are improved oil rings for greater oil economy, while newly-designed intake manifold in- duces quicker, smoother engine warm-up and produces faster throttle response.
 Body styling which produces greater passenger room without ex- cessive bulk also increases visibility. V-type windshields have 37 percent more area and provide excellent vision without distortion. Wind shield wipers clear 61.5 percent greater area and the rear window is 35,4 percent larger.
