The time is pear at hand in this country when the
automobile buyer will refuse to accept an as
sembled car-and for good and sufficient reasons
An assembled car is not desirable This must
be SO apparent upon even the slightest considera-
ton that it is little short of amazing that it has
taken SO long for the public to get the proper
viewpoint.
There is no mechanical transportation problem known
to man which demands harmonious treat
ment-more perfect balance of parts-more abso-
lutte interdependability.
The Apperson is the speedlest stock car in America
because it is Apperson through and through.
You can't get away from this question of speed what
ever may be your likes and dislikes III the
matter because it's the supreme test of thor
