STAR*' ENGINEERING CO. 'S COMMERCIAL MOTOKS. We have pleasure in announcing- the arrival of a sample 15-h.p. chassis. This represents the latest and most approved constructional , details for commercial vehicles, executed >in materials the' long-maintained quality of which has caused the "Star" ears to be accepted without question in ail parts of the world. The "Star" commercial cars aro absolutely distinct from thek pleasure cars., Too many firms have in the past conceived the idea of commercial body on a stock chassis, and-or announcing same' as a commercial vehicle'. This policy was doomed before it was fairly launched, owing to the inability of the engine and chassis, htfwever to %ithistaiif[ the greatly, increased loads and frequent hard handling.. The nominally of 15 h.p/.> is off a comparatively slowruuning type with very low eompre«h sion. The valves, inlet and eihaust ports are large and free, and the lubrlj cation system is very ensuriug an easy working engine giving * full efficiency and long life. The drive runs through a large leather-faced - cone; clutch to a gear box of truly adequate strength (four speeds forward' and re : verse gear), thence by bevel drive/to. live axle. '' Timken'' bearings ihrougr:out rear axle and hubs. The chassis is intended for loads of 15cwt to 1 these'being weights well inside its capacity over any class of road. The wheels are fitted with Dunlop tyres 815 x 105. The price of this chassis, inclusive of tools, horn, spare wheel, complete set of different ratios for gear-box, and a quantity of useful sundries, is £368 net, and this quotation compares more than favourably---witii any other high-grade maeHine on the market.
