The rather handsome car above is what you might
call a two time winner. Dodge led the nation in
percentage sales increase last year and continues to
set Mid smash these lofty sales marks in 1%4
It’s also caked a 1964 Dodge Or the low priced car
that doesn't look like one or feel like one. People who
have bought one. and who, incidentally, are trading in
ad kinds of other cars in record numbers, say they
like 1. The looks. 2. The roomy and rather posh in
tenorx. 1 The extra savings of its famous Slant S»»
4. The lively V8 that goes on regular gas 5. The sett
adjusting brakes and 32,000 mile interval between
major grease jobs. 6. The solid way if s put together—
with a fully unitized, rust protected body 7. The
price (right with Ford and Chevy).
If these seem like pretty good reasons for buying
a car, join the swinging trend setters who are
changing the look and feel of the low price field.
You'll find them at your Dependable Dodge Dealer's.
