Now before you buy a car find out what
repair parts will cost you.
Parts prices are your taxes. They come to
every owner and they will come to you. But you
can get them low if you will.
Most manufacturers take for granted you won't
think of this before you buy a Car. Then they've
got you. But Studebaker says "Find out now."
Because the Studebaker maxim it a square deal
for every owner.
We guarantee E-M-P "30" and Flanders "M"
cars four times as long as most manufacturers
and then sell you parts at prices lower propor-
tionately than any other manufacturer in the world.
