A WELL-DRESSED CAR

GOOD HOOD MAKES DIFFERENCE If a man walks down the street perfectly tailored in a 9 or a lOgns. suit and wearing a 10s lid hat somewhat the worse for age, everyone justly thinks that there is something wrong with this gentleman. But how many hundreds of men do go round the streets displaying similar tastes, not about their personal dress but the dress of their cars. There are many motorists, the bodies of whose cars look spick and span, the nickel-plated fittings all shiny and the enamelled surfaces of the bonnets and sides resembling looking-glasses—but what about the hoods? The hood of the car is like the old well-worn. lUs 6d hat of the welltailored gentleman—spoiling the whole picture. When the hood is looking shabby or is torn or allows the rain to beat in is the time for having a new weather-proof hood fitted on your car. A beautiful glassy black “Pontop” hood fitted on the car will complete the picture. The New Zealand Motor Hood and Accessories Company makes a specialty of fitting these “Pontop” hoods on cars.
