The Greatest Advancement Made in Infernal
Combustion Engine Design in Recent Years
PASSE! “Indications are that the streamline, straight-side body is passing out.” So stated a writer in a recent issue of a well-known motor journal.
What more fitting and proper than that a car, bearing the name ACE, and powered by a motor incorporating the greatest forward step in engine design, should set the style and fashion in new body designs.
In the mad race for quantity production, style and appearance were secondary considerations. For proof, observe the marked degree of sameness common to most cars. Style, always a big factor in the choice of a motor car, now influences to a greater degree than’ ‘ever the selection of this or that car.
NEW The ACE in four new, handsome body styles establishes a new standard in motor car fashions. There is an air of smartness and originality in their makeup that is as welcome as it is refreshing. Each of these four bodies portrays true grace and beauty in every line and curve and offers a pleasing change in appearance to the man and woman who have grown tired of,a style which has lost its attraction.
Compatible with its distinction and good taste in body improvement are mechanical features which lift the ACE frorr; the ranks of the commonplace and identify it as a truly great and extraordinary motor vehicle.
