These cars come from the, Canadian assembling and finishing branch, Walkerville, Ontario, and are remaTkablo for their exceptionally fine finish,, -necessitated by the demands of the overseas Studebaker trade. Many valuable, detail improvements are incorporated in th« second series models, one of the most noteworthy of these being the provision of independent and separately adjustable front seats of tho "bucket" type, together with adjustable pedals.
