How will you use glass in 1982′s cars?

We don’t know for sure, but our research scientists have their eyes on the future. Over 500 of them… at our Glass Research Centers… are continually looking for ways to make auto glass stronger, safer, more adaptable to bending, and more resistant to weather and abrasion.

Grueling pressure, temperature and stress tests are made on auto glass so that tomorrow’s cars will meet the most demanding performance, as well as aesthetic requirements. If you wish, our auto glass engineers will be glad to work with you on your current and future automotive engineering projects.

1963 Pontiacs advertisement

Selling 1963 Pontiacs may not be the happiest job on earth…but it comes close!

Maybe selling new Pontiacs isn’t quite as much fun as playing Santa Claus, but the jobs do have a lot in common. Happy people…pleasant surprises…and sparkling new beauty are associated with both. On the other hand, maybe the Pontiac dealer’s job is just a little bit better. After all, his season is so much longer!

1963 Studebaker Advertisement

It’s one company that gave dealers 3 super performance 1963 models. The world-famous Avanti, R2 Super Hawk and R2 Super Lark – cars with proven superiority of Studebaker’s chassis design – equipped to withstand speeds and stresses far in excess of day-to-day requirements. Dramatic evidence was shown when Avanti topped 168 mph, Super Hawk 140 mph, and Super Lark 132 mph during certified performance and safety evaluation tests at Bonneville. Speeds almost twice as fast as you should drive. These tests helped Studebaker develop components that meet and surpass the requirements of today’s driving. All for your protection.

It’s one company that offers dealers a price spectrum from the $4000 range to America’s lowest-price V8, and Sixes even lower.

It’s one company that offers dealers the saleable safety of caliper disk brakes for all models, plus factory installed seat belts as a delete option.

It’s one company that offers dealers the unique wagon-convertible. the slide-open roof Wagonaire. It’s the world’s most useful wagon.

Want to enjoy the advantages that come from working with an independent company, which offers a world of freedom for individual action?

The dependables built by Dodge!

The 1963 Dodge is warranted for 50,000 miles

…or five full years

A lot can happen before the new warranty* on a ’63 Dodge expires.

A two-some can become a five-some. If there were roads, you could drive around the world twice.

A Dodge salesman could become a sales manager. A sales manager, owner. An owner? He could be wondering what to do with all his money.

Or haven’t you heard?

Because of things like our warranty, the Dependables from Dodge boosted.

October-November-December sales a whopping 56% over the same period last year. That, gentlemen, is an increase no other car can match.

Kind nice to be a Dodge Dealer. Wouldn’t you say?

*Your Dodge Dealer’s Warranty against defects in material and workmanship on 1963 cars has been expanded to include parts replacement or repair without charge for required parts or labor for five years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first; on the engine block, head and internal parts; transmission case and internal parts (excluding manual clutch); torque converter, drive shaft, universal joints (excluding dust covers), rear axle and differential, and rear wheel bearings – provided the vehicle has been serviced at reasonable intervals according to the Dodge Certified Car Care schedules.
