There is not one single element even slightly experimental in the entire construction of the Dynamic New Erskine. The engine follows in every detail the proved principles of design of the new Dictator Six... certainly, one of the finest and most satisfactory power plants ever built by any manufacturer.

Many features of the Dynamic New Erskine are not only new to cars of its price class, but new to all cars. as, for instance, a new acoustic muffler which does away with backpressure, and thereby adds to horsepower. There is, too, a starting button handily located on the instrument board. There is a mechanical clutch damper, assuring velvet- smooth engagement. There are features of design without number, obviously better, and unique to this newest product of Studebaker engineering genius. Your admiration will grow, and your enthusiasm will become contagious, as you study and drive this truly remarkable vehicle.
The more critical the potential buyer,
the greater the pleasure in demonstrating the DYNAMIC
