CHRYSLER DEALER HELD
DEMONSTRATION AT 2 A.
Evidence that the new Airflow
Chrysler* are attracting unpreced
ented interest is found in the fact
that V. M. Panridge, the Roanoke,
dealer recently held demon-
-tarat ons at 2 a. m- and that James
S. Frazer, Nashville dealer continued
them until long after midnight.
These things happened on a rec-
nt trip made by Joseph W. Frazier,
general sales manager of the Chrys
ler Sales Corporation to visit dealer
points in the south. Mr. Frazer ar
rived in Roanoke after dark driving
a Chrysler Imperial Eight, the first
Airflow car that has been seen in
the city. It so happened that the
dealer was about to go on the air
with his regular program aad be
broadcast the news that the Airflow
had come to town.
Within an hour after the broad
cast, the show room had begun to
fill up and over 2,000 persona were
clocked between then and midnight
So great was the demand for demon
strations that the last one was given
at 2 o’clock in the morning. Even so,
hundreds had to be disappo ! nted.
The following viorning, Mr. Fraser
and his party of three other men, all
of them above average size, started
for Nashville, Tenn. 516 miles awfcy.
On this trip it was necessary to cross
the Cumberland and Alleghany
mountains. The driver purposely
sought out all Irinas of difficult
roads to test the rid : ng qualities of
the car, some of them so bad that
would have been impossible
negotiate them at anything but very
slow speeds in a conventional car.
In spite of the length of the trip
and its variety of bad going,
party arrived in Nashville about dark
and nobody complained of fatigue.
■ The Nashville dealer, like his con-
fere in Roanoke, promptly got on
tic air with the message that there

I must say that the riding qualties 1 --
of the Airflow were a revelation even
e. I had traveled many miles in
them during the testing period be- YOUR
fore they went into production, but
never before had gone over such
roads at such speed. Our engineers
have done an even better job than I
dared imagine until I experienced
this trip.
“Furthermore, in every eity we
visited the interest manifested was
simply amazing. Naturally the intro
duction of any new car is news and
thus it excites some curiosity, but
when people will sH up until 2:00
o’clock taking demonstrations, I think
that we c-n claim to have set a new
record for quick acceptance.
