INTRODUCING A NEW NASH

WITH SYNCHRO-SHIFT SAFETY TRANSMISSION

IN the new 900 series, Nash engineering leads the way to finer performance. Its new synchro-shift, safety transmission is the perfected transmission-silent in shift-as quiet in second speed as direct drive-and absolutely safe at any speed because of posi tive gear control.

Bodies of the new Nash are scientifically sound-proofed against noise and rumble. And the chassis is sound-insulated to add ✔ still further to the smooth, quier perform

ance and luxurious driving comfort of the new Nash Six and three new Straight Eights,

In appearance, the new Nash is an exquisite

new version of motor car style--with lines that suggest its power and flashing speed. Modern to the minute, from its V-type radi ators to its smart, new bumpers, the 900 series is irresistible in appeal to those who look for beauty in's motor car. But only the man who drives one can know how delight- fully the Nash perfected transmission, sound- proofeid ̈bodles and chassis, and the now famous Nash high compression, Twin-Igni- tion Straight Eight engine combine to estab lish new standards of operating enjoyment.
