This is built on an Austin 20 chassis, and without doubt the finished product could hold its own with anything imported. The trimmings are of antique brown leather. The car is painted a deep refined champagne colour, with black facings, and is a car that would command attention anywhere. A large char-a-banc on Mr. Newton King's Stand is of special Interest to those who travel. It has a 16-seater body built by Messrs Johnson and Smith on a White chassis, for the Christchurch-Hanmer run. In this car special provision has been made for durability, and the comfort of passengers on a long journey has received a great deal of consideration. It is practically an enlarged touring car and consequently has attracted a great deal of attention from tourists, who consider it quite the equal of anything constructed on the Other Side. The builders have made numerous cars for a similar purpose and consequently know exactly what is required for this type of work. On the Rink Taxis Stand (No. 15) is to be seen an exquisitely finished body on a S-seater Essex chassis. It is beautifully upholstered in an uncommon antique buff leather and finished off in a delicate shade for luggage at the back. Motorists and others have expressed great surprise that such excellent work has been accomplished in this city, and Messrs Johnson and Smith have been the recipients of many congratulations on the beauty of design and effectiveness of their exhibits, and, what is more, the congratulations are thoroughly deserved. Visitors are invited to inspect the works, and a view of the hive of industry where these masterpieces.are turned out will well repay anyone. nson & Smith -i«8B i w i ©dy Builders 132 Kilmore Street
