Gran am-Paige cars. -AH the sixcylinders engines, even the smallest, has a seren-bearing crankshaft with } main hearings of extra width and \ bum features as the special intake ..... distributes ~ = zinc more evenly to ah cylinders, and ire tour-speed gearbox, wrich reduces engine speed in proportion to road 3 of the vatecs of design which have been in- = corporate:!. The fuel pump replaces the vacuum tank in supplying benzine to the carburetter. The cooling system is built with extra size water spaces, and the radiator tubes are guarded with a false fieri vnlch protects against damage from hying stones and similar hazards. The engines are suspended at four points on rubber mountings. In the exhaust valve, Xo. 1 silchrome steel is us'd a:- a final precaution against corrcs.on from fuels. There are numerous instances of extra care and added value to be found throughout the entire mechanism of each Graham - Paige model. More quickly evident to the average eye, perhaps., is the quality of GraharaPaige bodies —the care exercised in construction, the beauty of finish, the . equipment. These things are the outward evi- ; der.ee of the careful planning and good manufacturing which is the mark of the new product by the famous G rah am Brothers. By nearly doubling its commercial car output during the year, the Chevrolet motor-car, in 1527 led all other commercial car manufacturers, just as it led all builders of passenger cars. Chevrolet commercial ear production for 2527 was 209 413 units, as against 111,203 trucks and commercial chassis in 1526; 48,255 units in 1525, and ' • ter 1 - period between 2 315 to 1525, when trucks of this type first went into production.
