This new-type car marks the most important light-car engineering improvement in the last 16 years. # The OVERLAND WHIPPET is a complete new car . . designed and built as a unit.. .not an old-fashioned chassis reconstructed. The enclosed models, or the touring model with the cop up are only as tali as the average man Yet, due to unique body construction, there is actually more head-room and legroom than you have ever found in any motor-car of this class. The specially designed steering mechanism for balloon tyres; and the four-wheel brakes make steering easy. Its high-torcjue, 31-horsepower engine of small bore and long stroke embodies the same enginoaring principles used in the fastest racing cars of' closer to the ground ... with the resultant sense of stability an absence of that sidesway so noticeable in the conventional type Lf .... ft Ttn. »_ 1- f ■ t 1 J 1 driving security at the high speeds of which this car is capable.

Money that goes back into your pocket. Money you must add to the cost price of any less-economical car you consider. Ia fairness to yourself see this remarkable car.
