The very best limousine bodies are

General appearance, comfort and
durability are points that can easily
be judged by the reputation Of the
maker. Beauty Of body lines and up

mark the. high-grade car and can
never be faxed. Last and not least
IL the care of the car after you have
bought It, VIII the Arm stand back

and cheerful service when you need

pert is a big factor also. No matter
how well built the car may be or
how well 1t Is cared for. adjustment
and repairs are sure to be necessary
occasionally.
See that the maker Of your car il

All these are points which the pros

The design Of luxurious Limousine
cars has undergone considerable
change within comparatively short
time. In days gone by the limousine
bodies were both heavy and unxightly.
The great cause for the excessive
weight was the exclusive use OF wood,
while the design had not yet received
the attention that 1t merited.
The excessive weight OF this old
type body resulted In q high center
of gravity, which Increased the dis
agreeable rolling action OF the car.

trade is still confronted with con-

absence of demoraliEation. speculation
and ovcrstocked shelves in all mercan-
