Description
VW Bug – Black and white 9 1/2″ x 13″ ad for the special suspension that these cars had. There is a picture from the front of a light-colored VW Bug with the front fenders removed so that the readers could see what the front suspension really consisted of. The ad headline says “See? No springs” and the text explains that torsion bars were used and goes into some detail in trying to explain just how they worked. It mentions that this Volkswagen also has 4-wheel independent suspension and claims that you can count all of the sedans that have both these features “on one finger”. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
