Fore Doors Included

The new 0verlands are made
with fore doors and without
your choice at one price. The
fore door models, for which most
makers charge an extra price, sell
the same as the open front.
We do this because fore doors
: will be the coming vogue. In Eu-
rope, where motor styles are set,
81 per cent Of this years models
are shown with fore doors.
Soon or late, every motor car
maker must include fore doors at
his standard price. So the Over
land, in maintaining its lead, is
doing just that this year.

that II would be "a most despicable
thing to make one get off and walk
