V-6 Truck Engine

PONTIAC, Mich. CAP).-
General Motors is hailing a
newly developed V-6 gasoline
engine as the first major ad-
vancement in truck engines
in two decades.
GIN engineers say durability
tests have shown the engines

With proper application and
maintenance procedures" says
Philip J. Monaghan, general
manager of GMC Truck and
Coach Division. these engines

By the Associated Press

Who will be hurt most by the
new compact cars? Not even
the auto industry can agree on
an answer. But the Industry is
certain of one thing: The Gus
toner will not be hurt.
Americans will have the
widest choice of new cars ever
to choose from. They can buy
plain, economical gas-saver or
a luxurious chromed machine.
They can pay under $1,000 (for
the first time in years. or more
than $4,000.
The big three auto makers
Ford. General Motors and
Chrysler-believe buyers for
their new compact cars will
come from an expansion of the
market. Chevrolet General
Manager Edward N. Cole eSti-
mates IL million of the Ameri-
can compactS will be sold in
1860.
Watched Abroad
The established leaders in the
ompact field, Studebaker-
Packard and American Motors,
say the big-car manufacturers
will be hurt most by the
compactS.
Foreign auto makers, who
have established a strong
market in the United States,
anxiously watch the reception
given the American compacts,
but not one foreign maker will
say its United States sales are
in danger.
A spokesman for the Fiat
auto works of Italy says: THE
new American small cars-while
called small-are still big cars
compared with Flats. Certainly.
however, the new American cars
will develop interest for smaller
automobiles as possible second
or third cars Gin the family 81
Sees More Interest
Robert Valode, vice president
and general manager in New
York of Renault, the French
auto-maker, says: What they
tthe American compact cars)
will do is to help quicken motor
lists interest in all economy
cars. The more people read,
hear and talk about economy
cars, the faster will public rec
ognition of their advantages
grow. This is bound to help
Renault. and we welcome it,"
General Manager Heinz Nord-
hoff. Of the giant Volkswagen
plant at Wolfsburg, Germany,
says: Il think the advent of
American small cars marks a
reasonable development. well
coined both by the engineers
and the prospective buyers. 1.
am convinced that they will be
successful.
But compared with Euro
pean cars, these American small
cars are still too big. They will
not be able to interfere with
the sales Of Volkswagen cars or
any other small European makes

States r1orypt"
