THE OVERLAND WHIPPET. “Like sitting at home in an armchair.” This was the sensation experienced by a reporter who had the privilege of riding in the new Overland Whippet Car. “A compact little bus,” aptly describes the Whippet. Its lines are graceful and withal suggestive of strength and durability. Though it takes only 29 inch tyres, there is a clearance of 93 inches from the ground, the reduced size of tyre giving greater traction and easier steering. As a consumer of “juice” it is “par excellence,” giving a mileage of 35 to the gallon. It turns round completely in a circle of 34 feet. To provide extra leg room for the occupants of the front seat, the space under the cowl is carried towards the bonnet, and brake and clutch pedals answer to the least pressure. In its distinctive body lines the Overland Whippet frankly resembles the smartest built and costliest cars. It is like a large expensive car reproduced in every detail in reduced dimensions. r lhe seating of the Whippet is the acme of comfort. Seats are of Spanish Duratex with comfortable cushion backs. The materials used in the entire construction of the Whippet, down to the smallest detail are of the best quality only, and all conduce to make a “top notcher” car at a price that comes within the means of the humblest enthusiast. The good materials used in the Whippet assure a minimum for upkeep. Low upkeep combined with big mileage per gallon of petrol, together with the lowest tyre costs, make the Overland Whippet a thing devoutly desired by all in need of a car which combines beauty 1 and stability with low running costs. The Dispatch Foundry, Motor- Department, can tell you all about the Overland Whippet. Ask them about it.—AD.
