AN ANNOUNCEMENT.
We have to announce that the second series of 1916 "Studebaker" cars are now on their way to New Zealand, per s.s. Pakeha, from Montreal, <hie to arrive shortly. These cars come from the Canadian assembling and finishing branch, Walkervills, Ontario. and are remarkable for their exceptionally fine finish, necessitated by the demands of the overseas Studebaker trade. Many valuable detail improvements are incorporated in the second series models, one of the most noteworthy of these being the provision of independent and separately adjustable front seats of the "bucket" type, together with adjustable pedals. This refinement should especially appeal 'to the lady driver or the exceptionally tall or short man, whose comfort is not adequately provided for by the usual fixed dimensions in the front of the car. Another important modification is the relegation of the petrol tank to the rear nf the car, and the provision of a verv efficient vacuum feed to carburetter. Thera are many minor modifications and improvements, all designed to add to the oomfort and convenience of both driver and passengers, while ill appearance the car is handsomer than ever. The new Studebakers will be on view at Studebaker Agencies shortly, ar.d all interested in the latest developments in American automobile desijn are invited to inspect them.
