CATALOG OF THE AUTOMOBILE COLLECTION 57 



The 4-passenger body is constructed entirely of metal. No doors are 

 provided, the passengers climbing over the low sides to enter. Safety 

 straps are installed at the outer side of each front seat. No rear fenders 

 exist, the wide body at the rear extending over the rear wheels. A 

 folding windshield with shatter-proof glass is supplied. A hand- 

 operated windshield wiper is in front of the driver. A rear- view mir- 

 ror is attached to the windshield base on the left. The radiator is 

 protected by a grillwork of vertical bars in the front. Bumpers are 

 provided, front and rear. The hood is of the "clam shell" variety, 

 hinged at its back and latched with a single latch at the front. The 

 gasoline tank is beneath the rear seat. Provision is made for a fire 

 extinguisher under the right, front seat. A collapsible top is com- 

 posed of easily removed pipe framework and canvas. 



Headlights are mounted on each fender at the front, with a small 

 auxiliary light for blackout use next to each. They are protected by a 

 small grillwork. The dimmer switch for the headlights is button-op- 

 erated by the driver's foot and is located between the clutch and brake 

 pedals. Two taillight units are supplied, one at each side on the back 

 of the body. The right one incorporates a taillight and a stop light 

 for use in blackout. The left one incorporates a service taillight and 

 stop light and a blackout taillight. Reflectors are provided at the back 

 and at the sides near the back. A pintle hook for towing purposes is 

 located at the back of the vehicle, attached to the frame. Handles on 

 each side of the body can be used for assisting the vehicle by manpower. 

 A muffler is placed beneath the right side of the body. 



The instrument panel contains a water-temperature gauge, an oil- 

 pressure gauge, an electrically operated gasoline gauge, an ammeter, 

 and a speedometer. The starter button is at the left end of the panel 

 and actuates a solenoid attached to the starting motor. Hand-operated 

 choke and throttle controls are provided, the latter supplementing the 

 accelerator pedal. A light switch is located in the center of the panel. 

 The blackout lights are energized when the switch is pulled out to the 

 first position. To turn on the service lights the switch must be pulled 

 out to its second position, this requiring the additional pushing of a 

 small button in the side of the switch housing. The ignition switch 

 (key-operated) is placed directly below the light switch. No manual 

 ignition spark advance is provided, as the distributor incorporates 

 a centrifugal automatic advance and retard mechanism. A button in 

 the hub of the steering wheel controls the horn below the left headlight.
