CHEVROLET'S NEW ROADSTER this photo of the new Chevrolet six-cylinder roadster, with its sporty ter is one of the seven new models in the Chevrolet line. Reflecting scores of advances, re- sultan: from four years intensive re- search and the economies made possi- bleiby great volume production, the new line of six cylinder valve-in-head cars which Chevrolet is offering this year in tle price range of the four, are expected to be among the most popular exhibits at the automobile shigw, ince the announcement recently of the new six, which provided one of the! most sensational news items of tolet of Chevrolet History," the new | provements 'over their famous four the year, motor circles have watched with interest the public favor accord- ed the new Chevrolet, which General Motors officials predict will again make motor car history in 1929, Known as "The Outstanding Chev- cars are acclaimed by company offi- vials as superior to any previous Chevrolet models. In beauty, power, speed, smoothness and riding com- fort the new cars display obvious im- cylinder predecessors, All closed bodies carry the famous Fisher stamp of craftsmanship, In gracefulness of line and quality of finish they have never been excelled in their price range. Seven models, 2 open and 5 closed cars, comprise the linc. Among the closed models are the coach, sedan, sport cabriolet, coupe and convertible laudau, the latter model making its appearance in the low price field for the first time. The open models are 'the roadster and the phaeton, which » Jsupplants the touring car. \ } The line is. characterized by num- 'erous comfort and safety' features, which include the adjustable driver's scat in all the closed models, the new beam headlamps and the quiet, posi- tive four wheel brakes. The new six cylinder engine is the development of over four years' work by Chevrolet engineers co-operating with the General Motors Research and General Motors Proving Ground staffs. It embraces several outstand- ing mechanical advancements. There is a new acceleration pump, which as- sures the speedy get-away so essen- tial to driving in congested traffic; the new hot spot manifold and the revolutionary new design combustion 'chamber which allows for unusually high compression with ordinary fuels. Jut it is the beauty of the new Chevrolet line that catches the eye of the crowd. All the new models are provided with a lustrous finish, and cach' has its own smart color com- bination. All are roomier than a year ago, and display many refinements exterior and interior not found in last year's line. Swung on the stury Chev- rolet chassis with its 107 inch wheel base, cach has 'the clean, free lines of the modern quality car, New to the line this year is the distinctive convertible landau, which achieves a note, strikingly continental by lowering the rear quarter of the |i top. Ll All of the bodies are rigidly braced, according to new Fisher engineering discoveries, to take caré of road shocks, strains and stresses. All, too, are of famous Fisher composite con- struction, wood reinforcing steel and steel reinforcing wood throughout. From every appearance factor the new Chevrolet bodies offer the latest and best in motor car design. The new radiator shell is manufactured of brass plated vith chromium, Chromium is a non-r. sting metal not- ed for its hardness, and guaranteed to retain its lustrous finish indefinite- ly. The beautiful new headlamps are fitted with chromium plated rims and mounted on chromium plated stand- ards, Hy y The new running boards and the new hood design, enhances by 15 nar- row louvres grouped at the rear of the hood, are other outstanding beau- ty features. The sweeping one-picce fenders are rigidly supported and in perfect harmony with the design ex- pressed throughout, The color combinations in the 1929 Chevrolet line are completely new, In its new offering Chevrolet has retained the proved worthiness of the valve-inshead principle.

The carburetor is new and larger {and there is a newly designed came shaft with a new fabric gear. The auy- tomatic acceleration pump comes into play whenever the acceleration is sud- denly depressed by forcing & small quantity of gasoline into the manifold of the carburetor. This assures in- stant and speedy pick-up, and has an economy feature in that it allows the use of a leaner mixture in the car- buretor, : The new engine is said to develop at all ordinary speeds many times the aiount of power required to drive e car, B of its 1 size and the relative shortness of its crank throws, the heavy 46 pound crankshaft makes tortional vibration imperceptible at all speeds, Automatic lubrication of the entire rocker arm system and of all valve operating parts are added fac- tors in achieving motor quietness, Every point of bearing contact is abundantly supplied with oil, Enlarg- ed valve tappets, a new muffling sys- tem and the sliding' gear transmission were/all constructed with silence in mind.

Among the comfort features of the new car are the deep, comfortable springs in the cushions, and the rest- ful fully cushioned seat backs. The enclosed models are upholstered in long wearing material and in colors that blend with the exterior finish. Ternstedt remote door controls and regulators add to the general luxury of the interior. ; STEM AND SAND GUIDES In replacing valve stems and guides, the question of a proper fit is of primary importance if the ef- fect is to be rewarded with good valve action, If a reamer is used on the guides, one method of measure- ment that assures good results is to insert the valve stem from time to time. When it drops easily and smoothly of its own weight, the re- pairer can count upon having achieved the desirable fit. The Nation's Best In Modern Transportation Our Used Car Dept.
