'ore Ihntnfut.More Economical Motoring
in Hfly — from iheNnrKUin 1>nN IdHTIOIt Motor
H ERE’S one sure way to make your
motoring more delightful in 1929
—drive a Nash ’’400”, the car with the
Twin-Ignition Motor!
More power... greater, smoother speed
... remarkable economy of operation—
these arc new advantages now offered
by Nash Twin-Ignition performance.
In the development of this remarkable
new motor, Nash has combined three
great principles of motor design—twin-
ignition, high compression, and valve-in-
bead.
In the air, this type of motor is winning
the honors. A tu-in-ignition, high com
pression, valve-in-bead motor carried
Lindbergh to Paris, Byrd over the Pole,
Goebel to Hawaii.
Now, for the first time, Nash makes this
more efficient, more economical motor
design available to every motorist.
Ask your nearest Nash dealer to give
you a Nash "400” to drive. Compare
what we say about the Twin-Ignition
motor, with what the Twin-Ignition
motor says to you!
