Dodge Dart Is
At Smith Motors
DETROIT, Oct. 5. — The 1960
Dodge Dart, the first completely
new full line of automobiles to en
ter the low-priced field since 1928,
makes its debut today.
The smaller Dodge Dart, design
ed to fit the family pocketbook as
well as the family garage, will be
offered in 20 sedans, station wa
gon, hardtop and convertible mod
els.
“These economy cars are design
ed to compete in price and size,
series for series, with the automo
bile industry’s low-priced big
three”, said M. C. Patterson,
Dodge general manager. “The
Dodge Dart makes it the ‘big
four’ now.”
The 1960 models will be avail
able in three series—the lowest-
priced Seneca, the Pioneer and the
top-series Phoenix.
The roomy Dodge Dart, which is
styled in classic lines, features its
own distinctive interior and ex
terior.
Engine Development
“A completely new, advance-de
sign six-cylinder engine—inclined
at an angle of 30 degrees in the
engine compartment—will provide
peak economy for the U. S. motor
ist,” Patterson said.
A choice of engines—designed
to use regular fuel and to suit the
needs of every buyer—is offered.
The Seneca and Pioneer models
feature the completely new Eco
nomy Slant “6” as standard equip
ment. Also available is the 318-
cubic-inch Red Ram V-8 engii e
with a two-barrel carburetor.
The top-line Phoenix has a 318-
cubic-inch Red Ram V-8 engine
with a four-barrel carburetor as
standard equipment. The new “D-

nFTROTT OCT 1 The low graceful silhouette of the 1960 Dodge is accented
by sma™ anL fins flying natoaUy from the new jet-tube rear fenders Tins Mata
dor features a new high-fashion rear window which curves into the roof.
500” Ram Induction engine also is
available in this model with a
383-cubic-inch displacement.
New rubber block and heavy
coil spring engine mountings used
on all 1960 Dodge engines achieve
the largest reduction of engine vi
brations since Dodge first intro
duced V-8’s.
Matching the six-cylinder en
gine is a completely new automatic
transmission — the TorqueFlight-
“Six”—featuring fully automatic
three-speed torque converter shift
ing. The new transmission provides
the utmost in convenience while
still preserving the economy in-
nerent in this over-nead valve six-
cylinder engine.
Family Design
Designed for the modern fam-
ily-on-the-move, the new Dodge
Dart not only is sleek looking,
with compact sculptured lines, it
also provides exceptional reada
bility and handling ease because
of the new “Unibody” construc
tion, engines, Torsion-Aire Ride
and a 118-inch wheelbase.
This means more driving pleas
ure—and greater value for more
years—which will please men.
And women particularly, will
love the room interior and com
fortable seat heights, especially in
the rear passenger area.
They will be able to get in and
out of the new Dodge Dart easily
with plenty of room for knees—
because of large door openings.
Yonger people will like the lib
eral use of glass, which creates an
airy outdoor feeling suggestive of
a convertible. They also will en
joy the large sky-view rear win
dow, available on hardtop models
in shaded glass that cuts out 85
percent of the sun’s heat.
The front features a grille
with verticle bars that curve
down and forward from the hood.

bumper also highlight the front
styling. From the side, the new
car is accented by a horizontal
molding that begins ahead of the
front door and extends to the
rear bumper. The rear fender rises
almost imperceptibly to its ex
tremity, except in station wagon
models where a small fin is cant
ed outward from the body line.
The rear bumper has smooth
lines and'includes the gas filler in
the bumper and round, well-pro
tected backup lights. The rear
license plate is inset in the broad
sleek surface of the deck lid.
Oliver Emphasis
Particular attention was paid to
the driver in designing and engin
eering the Dodge Dart.
The entire interior of every mod
el has been daringly designed to
keynote this important area—the
driver’s side of the front seat in
most models is higher than the re
mainder of the seat back.
This new design provides added
support for the driver and intro
duces a* “six-passenger” look to
further point up the large, airy in
terior.
A foot-operated parking brake
is located under the left side of
the instrument panel.
The transmission push buttons
are safely located in the instru
ment panel to the left of the
driver and the push-button heater
and air-conditioning controls are
placed at the same height to the
right of the driver.
The translucent plastic speedo
meter extends above the dashboard
just below the line of vision so it
can be read easily by the driver.
To prevent nighttime reflections
on the windshield, a graceful, slen
der canopy arches over the speed
ometer face.
Just as there is a choice of en
gines, there is a wide choice of
harmonizing easy-to-clean inter-
ors, all color-keyed to the exter
iors.
There is handsome leather-
grained all-vinyl, or a smart com
bination of color-fast nylon warp
fabrics and the long-lasting vinyl.
The Dodge Dart offers a wide
variety of “Lustre-Bond” super
enamel colors for the family to
choose from.
