This is a rare original 1932 color print ad for the new Willys-Overland Sixes and Eights automobiles, the Silver Anniversary Models out of Toledo, Ohio. This ad features the 100,000-mile Silver Streak Motor which was tested over 1,000 miles a day on the Indianapolis Speedway, and it only used 1 1/4 cent a mile! "50,039 Miles in 48 Days!" The Six offers 65 horsepower (and also comes in a Coach model), while the Eight offers 80 horsepower; the ad also boasts that Willys-Overland has won 16 official A.A.A. records for standard cars under $1,000.00.
