SAFE Oil...
CLEAN Gasoline...
Today’s motors demand them
M ANY oils on the mar
ket today can’t stand
the gaff in modem high
speed motors. Don’t take
costly chances. It’s so easy
to protect your car by ask
ing for Pan-Am motor oil.
This oil is safe. It is refined
from paraffin base crudes
that produce a tougher oil.
That’s why it will protect
the hottest friction spots
in any motor.
Your car will also perform
better with clean Pan-Am
gasoline. This gasoline is
refined with unusual care
to remove carbon-form
ing elements and dirt.
That means a cleaner mo
