Description
Chrysler 4-Door Newport – Black and white 10″ x 14″ ad that has a photo of a light-colored parked on the side of an old country road that is overlooking a very scenic valley with a river wandering through it. Near the rear of the car, the people have gotten out of the car and are focusing a hi-definition camera down to take some pictures. The ad headline asks if we’ve “Heard the news?”. It then says that it is “Full-size news at that! Because most people won’t believe that Chrysler can have a price so low yet keep value so high! Particularly when they find out this Chrysler is no jr. edition. It’s a genuine Chrysler – brimming with Chrysler engineering firsts. All welded, rust-resistant Unibody. A battery-saving alternator. Firebolt V-8 that runs sweet as a watch on regular gasoline. Torsion bar suspension for superb road balance. Brakes that outclass the competition in size and lining life. Special driver’s seat. AstraDome panel with soft-glow lighting. Make a believer of yourself. Check Newport“.
