So much that’s new ..
You’ll find that the Dodge Royal V-8 brings you the
finest of new car features for 1954... a combination
of the “dome-shaped” combustion chamber 150
h.p. Red Ram engine, famous for power and economy
... and PowerFlite, the smoothest and most powerful
of fully automatic transmissions. No other car offers
you this great performance combination at so low a
price.
You’ll be frankly amazed at the control you have
over this Dodge Royal—how it clings to curves, and
holds the roughest roads with smootb-riding ease^
You’ll like its beauty and luxury, too. New chrome
treatment increases that longer, lower look . . .
colourful two-tone interiors have wide, restful
chair-high seats ... floors are covered by rich, deep
wool-type carpeting. Twelve new body colours, in
lustrous baked enamel can be'adapted into 48 two- .
tone colour combinations.
A road-test will convirice you that the Dodge Royal
offers you more of the finer qualities you want-
unequalled at the price—plus traditional Dodge
Dependability.
. and completely proved!
POWERFLITE fully automatic transmission is standard on
Dodge Royal V-8’s. It lets you move in one effortless motion
from starting to highway speeds—without lifting your foot
from the accelerator. Its built-in fluid torque drive gives extra
acceleration for fast, oil-cushioned starts.
FULL POWER STEERING takes all the hard work out of
parking and steering. It's on the job all the time from the
momentyou start your engine. Optional at moderate coston all
1964 Dodge cars.
