these cara turned owr to dealers
who came to the factory to drtve

Two records were broken, the
first being total deliveries lor out
day. the second being total drive-

The driveawuys were made u
dralers within a r;ulius i.f -'..a'

came to the factory rather than
wait for the. slower method of tak

While the freight i-hipiuents

period.
Advance designat ton of orders
for specific cars were in the hands
of the driveaway delivery division
upon which devolved the: necessity
for properly entering the sales
orders and assigning the car units
by serial and motor number.
Papers arranging for the taking
of the car by the dealer were pre
pared in anticipation of his arrival.
Installation of equipment, both
regular and special in accordance
with the dealer's orders, was taken
care uf in advance of the coming
of the men who were to drive the
cars away.
This introduced an element in
the factory shippin;; division
which is ordinarily taken, care of
by the service department of the
dealer's own organization.
Installation of dealer's local
license plates and arrangements
for payment of the cars as they
were turned over, as well as the
lining up of the cars tu avoid con
fusion in delivery, were problems
in organization which had to be
