Here is truly dramatic proof that Chrysler's great new FirePower 180 HP V-8 engine design sets an entirely new standard of efficiency among American passenger car engines! In this annual economy test, rigidly super vised, and limited strictly to stock car entrants, cars competing are divided, by price and size, into 11 standard classes. The route, from Los Angeles to Sun Valley, covered 1,415 miles of every possible kind of driving. Average speed for all cars was just under 41 miles per hour. And in 3 of the 11 classes, the Chrysler V-8 engine was best for gasoline mileage. In Class "F", this magnificent new engine won first place for a Saratoga 6-passenger sedan (125'-inch wheelbase, 4010 pounds). In Class "H", it won first honors for a Saratoga model 8-passenger sedan (139J-inch wheel base, 4510 pounds). And in the top price and size, Class "I", it was again first, in a Chrysler Crown Imperial Sedan (145 J--inch wheelbase, 5360 pounds). To travel these substantial cars at this speed under these conditions gives additional proof, we believe, that here in the FirePower V-8 engine is the finest and most efficient engine ever put into an American passenger car! WE INVITE YOU TO DRIVE . THIS ENGINE, YOURSELF . . . The same engine which has just scored these remarkable accomplishments is no farther from you than your own Chrysler Dealer. He will welcome the chance to let you take the wheel and feel for yourself what Chrysler has done . . . not only in engine performance, but in power steering, power brakes, new shock absorbers, passenger comfort ... to deserve the title: "Finest Car America Has Yet Produced? the finest car America has yet produced CHRYSLER ( CttKVSU AX, taawiWa.
