ted ia« rie icy ng :he are ;he he he in he he in- a nd he JVO try rst ill icy as is a symbol off achievement . . . and a promise off great things to come Today, throughout Chrysler of Canada’s Forward Look family, you find advancements so modern that many are still only drawing- board dreams to other manufacturers. Many of these advancements, such as push-button automatic transmission, Full-Time power steering, and Total-Contact brakes are rela¬ tively recent, and, of course, readily associated with the youthful, progressive spirit of The Forward Look. But, did you know that the first four-wheel hydraulic brakes . . . first high-compression engines . . . first adjustable front seats .. . first safety-rim wheels . . . and a score of other notable automotive firsts” have also been associated with this Forward Look spirit over the past 30 years? And did you know that this same spirit has meant significant advances in truck engineering and industrial engineering as well? There was no famous Forward Look name, or symbol for it, back in the earlier days of Chrysler of Canada’s history. But the youthful spirit, the looking ahead, have always kept Chrysler in the forefront of progress. And we like to think that this same pioneering urge motivates all our young people as they move from the academic to the business world. For whatever our chosen occupations, it is this that promises great accomplishments for all of us, that means richer, more abundant living, in the years that lie ahead. You ' re always a step ahead in cars of The Forward Look PLYMOUTH • DODGE • DE SOTO CHRYSLER • IMPERIAL CHRYSLER CORPORATION OF CANADA, LIMITED
