Back:
Diplomat Medallion.
Here is luxury in a new size and
shape to suit the needs of a new day
and age.
Diplomat Medallion is powered by
the renowned 225 Super Six which
operates in conjunction with a thrifty
four-speed manual overdrive
transmission.
Driving convenience is assisted by
standard power steering and power
front disc/rear drum brakes. Smooth
riding comfort is enhanced by
isolated transverse torsion-bar front
suspension. And quiet is maintained
by strategically placed
sound-deadening materials
throughout a strong, one-piece
Unibody structure.
This kind of sophistication can be

witnessed in Medallion's passenger
compartment as well. Instrumentation
is set in a convenient modular panel
that is arranged within easy sight and
reach of the driver. Front seating is a
60/40 split bench with fold-down
armrest and passenger-side recliner.
And rich carpeting covers the floor
throughout.
You can enhance the interior with
some rather alluring options, too. Like
the new AM/FM stereo radio with
push-button programming and
electronic Search Tune.
All things considered, the 1978
Diplomat Medallion offers a lot of
seductive quality at an even more
seductive price.
