The 1950 Plymouth car, with im
portant Styling changes and im
provements for safety and riding
comfort, is now on display in deal
er showrpoms throughout the coun
try. . " There are new linos in ihc sil
houette which give the new Ply
mouth a longer) lower, more stream
lined appearance. The changes.are
readily apparent whether viewed
from front, rear, or side.
Rear fenders, which are boltod
on for economical removal in case
repairs are necessary, have been re
styled and lengthened. A larger
rear window on club coupes and
four-door sedans, slightly greater

(tod ready to prove it," the new
Plymouth was characterized by D.
Eddlns, president of Plymouth
as "The greatest car value we have
ever offered the public'
"When' we speak of value," Ed-
dins said, "we moan that we hae
combined beauty with sensible
styling, that we have achieved big
car performance with small-car
economy, and that the mechanical
excellence of which we have al
ways been proud has maintained
its high level."
The front and rear treads have
been incrtMH-d, a factor which in
crease:! -l-.hilily, oas--.es tiro loading
stress on curves, and enhances the
car's ai-nf-r.il appearance. Thirty
two percent larger than on pre
