No matter how steep the grade . . . you can park your Chrysler and it won’t
roll. With Chrysler's new "Easi-Lock" Parking Brake you have three times
ordinary braking power. Yet only one-third the effort is required to pull it
on with your finger tips. Nothing you’ve ever used equals its ease and sure-
ness. No straining—yet once it's on, nothing can budge your car. It's just
gmm
one more new advantage that puts Chrysler still further ahead in safety!
Just one more good example of the built-in value all the way through that
we believe will make you a Chrysler buyer for life. Come in today for the
demonstration that will prove you can't beat Chrysler for extra money's
worth through and through.
