FINE METALS MAKE A FINE CAR
As a car is 98 percent metal you can readily imagine how great a part metals play
in its quality. A Maxwell is made of fine metals—extra fine metals; otherwise it
never could have survived those 1,500,000,000 miles that owners are estimated to
have driven it.
These metals had to be of the finer grades in a Maxwell. For a Maxwell is light
—2130 pounds. Lighter metals had to be used but lighter in weight only—not in
strength.
