Watsons; Wellington City Council; Govern* ment Departments—Agriculture, Public Works, Telegraph Engineers, Public Health, and Education* The Overland power plant is Overland-designed and completely Overland-built. The motor is a model of simple design and efficiency. It turns up 29 horse-power on brake test. It is a powerful, rugged motor that delivers more than the usual number of mile 3 from a gallon of petrol or a pint of oil Motor, clutch and transmission are a unit. These vital parts are completely enclosed, and are thus protected from mud and dirt. The transmission is of the selective, Bliding-gear type—three speeds forward and reverse. The clutch is of the disc type, easy to operate and remarkably efficient The clutch rang ta a tatfc «f oil. The Overland comes to you complete—no extras to buy.

When the "Overland" captured Australia's greatest endurance record—3,loo miles across Australia—through desert sand drift, rocky ranges and flooded plains—through 950 miles of pouring rain and flooded creeks—a. consistent average of SO miles to the gallon was maintained. In the Sydney "Daily Guardian" Three-Day Reliability Contest, the "Overland" ran first in its class for petrol economy.
