...that threw up showers of sparks from the pavement. Boys and girls sang and waved palm fronds in triumph. And trucks, cars and delivery scooters jammed into central El Conde Street, their rapturous passengers pounding hoods, fenders and roofs in an endless two-long, three-short rhythm for "En-fin, Libertad! [At last, Liberty...
...more reflection of the tribulations that have cut Chrysler's share of the U.S. auto market from 14% in 1960 to 10% at present. Despite disappointing sales of its 19615, Chrysler clung to its losing bet on wedge-shaped European styling, and added some neo-fin details in most 1962 models. Result: its daily sales rate last month slipped nearly 16% below December 1960 while the auto industry as a whole was scoring a 7.4% gain. By New Year's Day, Chrysler dealers had stacked up an So-day supply of cars v. an average 41-day stock...

...CHRYSLER. Both the Plymouth and the Dodge Dart are completely redesigned, are shorter and narrower on the outside, but not appreciably changed in interior size. Both have long, low hoods and short, sloping rear decks. The Dart has abandoned its curly rear fin for an unadorned, clean rear-fender line, has changed its concave grille to a flat one with a forward thrust. The pizazz model, Polara, will come out only in two-door hardtop and convertible models. Both Dodge and Plymouth retain their 1961 engines but will seem a lot livelier because they are 300-400 lbs. lighter. Plymouth...
