DODGE CORONET HAS`WORLD'S
MOST MODERN V-8 ENGINE
The Dodge V-8 engine in the Dodge Coronet
models is of a design generally recognized
as the ideal for power and economy. ft
brings you the triple power advantages of
"dome-shaped" combustion chambers ...
short stroke design ... high lift lateral
valves. And it easily produces 140 H.P. on
regular grade gas. Drive the new Dodge
Coronet. Thrill to its purging power and its
easy "no -shift" driving.
For new driving thrills —get behind the wheel of this new Dodge.
'You'll -realize that only a brand new approach to automobile design
could have achieved such amazing riding and driving qualities..
Starting with a now, much wider and lower frame—for greater
stability ---Dodge engineers have cleverly redesigned tie suspension .to
make the famous Oriflow ride even smoother and steadier. The result
.is a car which hugs the road . handles surely ... and takes the curves
in stride. And they have achieved a"livelier performance by reducing
fuel -consuming weight.
But don't take our word for it. Come in today and road-test the new
Dodge for yourself. You'll be amazed.
