and li's. .These new models fit tho
Vlllys-Overlnnd factory) are the last
word tn Automotive engineering anil
design, and the reception accorded
them throughout tho 1'nltcd States
has been nothing short of miraculous.
Tho two New Overland 6 models
.tho Standard Two Door Sedan and
tho Do I.uxe Sedan are unquestion
ably the most beautiful new closed
cars on tho market at anywhere near
the price. The two door sedan is fin
ished In Duco, Is equipped with a 40
h. p. motor of Willys-Overland de
sign, balloon tires, 29x4.95, mounted
on artillery type wood wheels; Ions;
easy-riding scmi-ellptlc springs front

arrangement in driver's compartment

to the rear compartment without the
necessity of front passengers leaving
tho car.
The Do I.uxe four door sedan, fit
ted with disc wheels and balloon
tires, Is beautifully finished in two
tones of b!ue and gray. The arrest
ing beauty of this car was one of the
outstanding features of the recent
automobile shows.
If you have not already seen these
models and ridden in them. It Is de
cidedly worth your while to attend
this lecture and at the same time ask
Sir. Bryant to show you the new
Overland 6's.
