Sailing Away (1937)

[Music] the 1937 Plymouth ladies and gentlemen and it is sailing along to new records appearance economy safety and Performance Sailing along highways of the the of history and what a history of value giving of sens success year after year pth has had pouth is the only car that built a million units in the first 6 years of its existence then in a little more than 2 years the second million Mark was achieved look at the record of Plymouth Triumph during the Depression and sense there is only one way to attain rocketing popularity and that's by building extraordinary value proof of that value is seen the scarcity in the used car markets while used car Specialists will actually pay more for Plymouth than for the other two low priced cars Plymouth popularity stands securely on its history of building longer life greater safety and more style and luxury into its car year after year and this year's automobile is a creation of such beauty that Plymouth stands out in any company look at it from any angle and it's impressive see how the lines of the massive fenders are joined with the swelling curves of the smoothly rounded radiation shell body lines go along theek Hood with modernistic louvers over solid oneel top and then down the handsome built-in trunk the rear end is harmoniously balanced with those twin tail lights and a separate license bracket with a light below it plenty of room there and it's all usable room too for the gasoline filler pipe has been removed from the trunk it's bigger than the ordinary low priced car in every way inches wider from door to door this year which means a wider windshield for safety three persons sit comfortably in the front seat with ample shoulder room the rear seat is more than fourt wide no clouding in this Commodus car of course the new Plymouth chair height seats that permit a normal seting position more leg room than ever before because the expensive new hyid rear axle make possible a low floor without any hump to accommodate the propeller shaft big rear windows this year and a convenient reading lamp between them one of many thought details of design it's a great big package of value this 1937 Plymouth and beneath the beauty steel for safety Plymouth has had a steel body for 7 years steel pillars steel panels and steel floor sturdily braced and reinforced throughout with still more steel then to Crown this masterpiece of body construction there is a solid steel top formed from one piece of Steel and then electrically welded to sides to form one solid rigid unit the bodybuilders were thinking of your comfort too so they Prov provided a wide deep drip molding that carries off the rain for your protection the new pouth introduces safety styling door handles have been redesigned curving inward so they won't catch your clothing the instrument panel combines luxury with safety styling all knobs and controls of the new pth are accept including the ignition key nothing protrudes see how cleverly the windshield control has been folded away now this seat back is padded to soften the bump in case of a quick stop note too that safety styling makes this armrest of soft sponge rubber Plymouth gives you complete ventilation not only does the windshield open but also there is a screen ventilator in the cowl ventilating wings are operated with a simple lever and when the rear half of Plymouth ventilating window is lowered there is no metal bar to obstruct the view or to get it away when giving hand signals rear quarter windows are hinged so they swing outward on friction pivots here again the protruding crank has been eliminated your Plymouth windshield will not be obscured by snow or clouded by steam through vents in the bottom of the windshield frame warm air from a connection with the heater can be directed over the glass for added comfort in cold weather Plymouth uses complete insulation to seal body against the Winter Wind as well as to keep dust gas fumes and noise the story of Plymouth engineering to conquer sounds is a thrilling account of scientific achievement that would require a motion picture all itself to tell first the body of Steel and all all one piece so there could be no body squeaks nor rattles was a Pioneer in the use of All Steel bodies in the low price field this new car has actually been silenced like a radio Studio the result is the quietest ride of any low priced car and Plymouth was the first of the low PRC cars to have hydraulic brakes every Plymouth ever built has had them which means every Plymouth comes to a quick smooth stop you go sailing along in a Plymouth completely at ease and confident of the security of hydraulic brakes it's a safe stop without skid or SID sway because pouth double- acting hydraulic brakes assure an equal pressure on all four wheels self-energizing hydraulic brakes used by other manufacturers do not provide that soft smooth stop for through their very principle of wrapping action they have uncontrolled pressure that results in jerky stopping the development and use of the equal press principle for years by Plymouth Engineers has perfected the brake so the brake shoes take hold evenly on Long surfaces of the drum Plymouth feeds the field in steel body and hydraulics and the superiority of its engine is just as outstanding super high compression means economy means Plymouth owners enthusiastically report as high as 24 mil to the gallon of gasoline floating power Engine mountings with Plymouth calibrated ignition make possible this high compression economy with smoothness patented floating power suspends the engine in perfect balance and by permitting it to rock on its natural axis it dissipates vibration and provides the smoothest engine in the industry the rigid Plymouth crankshaft rests on four main bearings instead of three usually found in low priced cars four bearings mean longer life and economical servicing the Plymouth camshaft has a special quiet cam L and rests on four large bar all pressure lubricated and it's chain driven which adds to manufacturing cost and at the same time add to owner satisfaction not only cam bearings but also connecting rod bearings and main bearings in the mighty Plymouth engine receive oil under 35 lb pressure that makes for economical operation and long life and even today not all low priced cars have full pressure lubrication all air that goes into the engine passes through a filter that removes dust and other particles that might damage cylinder walls and barriers not all low priced cars have an oil filter but Plymouth has one to keep engine oil clean and make it last longer rings of a special hard heat resisting metal are inserted in the cylinder block to form seats for the exhaust bells and thus postponing the necessity for valve grinding many thousands of miles here's more economy Plymouth Pistons are of aluminum alloy for finer acceleration and lighter bearing Lads four rings on each piston make possible perfect compression and oil conservation Plymouth cools the cylinder boes for their whole length lowering the temperature of the crank case oil as much as 50° fulllength water jackets mean important Savings in oil but don't imagine that plymouth's amazing economy has been obtained at any sacrifice in performance and certainly not in luxury in the low price field there simply isn't another ride like plymouths no other low pric car has achieved balanced weight and balanced springing that contribut so much to the even smooth ride with front-end bounce eliminated this 1937 Plymouth has thin leaf springs at the front just as flexible as those at the rear here made of a mola steel a special alloy they contribute to the new ride sensation plymouth's famous floating rid to realize what these big Aero hydraulic shock absorbers give you in comfort you must ride in the car you must go sailing along in the Plymouth to get the feel of it Plymouth places one of these low pressure direct acting chock absorbers on each wheel both front and rear there are four of these husky fellows at work saving the Springs smoothing out the road smothering the shocks of a rough road so it seem the boulevard now look at it in slow motion see those Wheels dance but the car and the people in it are cushioned against Road shot the Plymouth irons out a detour notice that the car takes the bumps but the passengers never know anything about it here's another exciting contribution to your comfort on the rigid X double drop frame are Plymouth Sensational rubber poised body mountings floating power engine mountings keep engine vibration from reaching the body now these fool shaped rubber body mountings float the body free of the frame thus the body is completely insulated against Road shocks and noises now both the engine and the body are floated on live rubber no more is there any possible metalo metal contact between Frame and Body here's more comfort more luxury more reasons why it's fun to go sailing along in a Plymouth a steering shock Eliminator absorbs Road shock that might otherwise be felt in the steering gear silent U shackles are placed on both front and rear springs for silent shackle action thus greatly improving the steering action Plymouth always rides on an even Keel because this sway Eliminator is connected directly to the front axle where a change in the car's forward motion first affects its stability travel the roughest Road and you'll find that Plymouth steering gear is virtually unaffected by any up and down travel of the axle wheel fight is eliminated while the wheels keep straight ahead whether you drive in gravel heavy dust or snow all together plymouth's shockless steering means new steering ease where the going is rough and particularly in City parking the 1937 Plymouth is the most beautiful car the 1937 pouth is the biggest car the 1937 pouth is the most luxurious car in all pouth history the 1937 Plymouth
