SUNSHINE TURRET TOP
The new Sunshine Turret Tops add much to the pleasure
of motoring. Sliding roofs were first introduced to
quantity production in this country by General Motors.
They provide many of the advantages of the convertible
cars, yet retain the structural strength and safety of
the closed car bodies. The new top greatly increases
interior ventilation which will be greatly appreciated
in warm weather. It is especially desirable for touring
through scenic country.
LaSalle Sedan with new Sunshine Turret Top.
Sunshine Turret Tops are optional at extra cost on
the LaSalle 5 Four-Door Touring Sedan and 5 Two-
Door Touring Sedan. The sliding panel extends nearly
the full width of the roof and from just behind the
windshield to a point between the front and the rear
compartment. The panel is easily released by a locking
handle. The sliding panel may be easily operated by
one hand and may be locked in any position. Gutters,
drains and rubber seals around the roof opening prevent
entrance of water and prevent air leaks when the
roof is closed. Careful design has insured a sturdy,
foolproof construction.
