WILLYS-OVERLAND. INC., TOLEDO. OHIO U JUL V V FOURS W. CHASE Phone 3S9 TOTAL MILLION DETROIT, Aug. 20. One million six cylinder Chevrolet huv been placeu on the road since the fust .. the year. Tnis sensational announcement, indicating us it docs the great popular appeal oi Lie new stx jy.muur cui, wan maue at the ceu Liai offices of Uie company here io day as assembly p.anu m various ourta of tlie county wuie ooiut tng on the biggest a u miner piouue tion schedule in the history ot Gneviolet. Never in the history of the in dustry has any otner manufacturer quailed tne achievement ot plac ing a million six cylinder cars on iiie road in less than eignt munUia. In fact, according to observers, mis is more than three times as many six cylinder cars as were ever purchased by a manufacturer duing a like period. The record-making model, prob ably the most famous of ail Chev rolet record cars, rolled otf the as sembly line at tne huge Flint, Mich., plant on August 5. It hap pened 10 be a seuun the new Im perial sedan, Introduced a tew weeks ago. The glistening record breaker was welcomed at the end of tho assembly line by W. S. Knudsen, president, and other high Chevrolet officials. ; Without any ceremony the car left the plant for Detroit where it will be presented us one of the In teresting exhibits that are to be a part of the mammoth Chevrolet sales convention in Detroit, August 14-15-16. The entire Chevrolet s;Ues supervisory force of nearly 2,000 men will be on hand for the bigges convention of Its kind eve held by the company. The rnpidity with -which Chevro let marched on to the record of a million sixes in less than eight niontns will be noted from the tol- lowing tabulation of the dates when tho various epoch marking sixes were on the road : First six, Jan. 1; 250,000th six, March 6; GOU.OOOth six, April 24; DR. NERBAS DENTIST Painless Extraction Gas When Desired Pyorrhea Treated Phone 488 Masonic Bldg. ow doors l ll i jIlU RlIJ l&.fe IPPET AND SIXES Rotcburg, Oregon 750,000th cix. June 12; 1,000,000th six Augun 5. Nearly every state In the Union I had a sharo in the building of the j million sixes. Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Michigan furnished the steel; the South and tlie West supplied the wood; the South and tho North east provided the cotton and wool; tho rubber came from Ohio, Illin ois and California; the glass from Pennsylvania, Ohio and Illinois, and the Duco and enamel from New Jersey- and Michigan. Moie than 85.000 carloads of material wore uued to produce the million sixes. As officials point out, the achievement Is even greater than during the same period of W27 or 1928, during which years the Chev rolet Motor company was the world's largest builder of automo biles. Furthermore, the change made by Chevrolet January 1 from four-cylinder production to six cylinder production has upset all previous precedents in the lov priced field bv cmislng the pmduc- tton or six-cylinder cars to exceed the production of four-cylinder cars for the first time In automo tive history.
