This official American record is dramatic proof of Studebaker’s brilliant performance and endurance. Such reserve power, such reserve strength, makes a simple task of normal driving and assures years of satisfying service. Despite its luxurious equipment—the price of the new Studebaker President Eight is below many six cylinders of lesser power. You will heartily enjoy putting this great new straight eight through its paces. We cordially invite you to inspect all the new Studebaker and Erskine models in our Showrooms. Read what Squadron Loader C. Kingsford Smith and Flight Lieutenant C. T. P. Ulm say about Studebaker President. Sydney, 18th July, 1928. " The Studebaker President Straight Eight Sedan, which I recently purchased from you, is running so well that I am tempted to put wings on it. Before finally deciding on the President Eight I made a careful inspection of ali high, grade curs and selected the Studebaker be cause I consider its engineering design to be basically correct. I wish you to know that the road perform ance of the President, its luxurious comfort and the admiration it evokes among my friends has absolutely confirmed my judgment in choosing this car.” % 2mk£ Sydney, 27th July, 1928. “ Smithy and I tried the Studebaker President out recently and didn’t that bus pull. I hardly remember changing gear. The President seemed to treat all hills alike — over in tap. This, combined with the extraordinary comfort and riding made our run very pleasant, and we were not at least fatigued at the end of the trip.” (Signed) C. T. P. ULM, Co-Commander, Southern Cross. (Signed) KINGSFORD SMITH, Co-Commander, Southern Cross. The new Studebaker ball-bearing spring shackles—an exclusive Studebaker feature —eliminate all squeaks and rattles common to ordinary plain-bushed shackles.
