action will be interested in the new
Velte Model SO with two decidedly
different body styles.
The 3S chassis has a wheel base
of 124-inches, with wheels and tires
33 ". A Red Seal six-cylinder
Continental motor, 34s "a in size
gives enormous power when coupled
with the superior transmission sys-
tenn with which the chassis is equip
ped. Disc clutch, Hotchkiss drive,
Timken axles and bearings all form
part of the major specifications.
The electrical equipment, control
and mechanical detail practically
duplicate in design and function the
corresponding elements of the Mo-
del IS, but are naturally of greater
strength and size to care for the
more severe duties expected of them.
The entire trade and it's followers
will be interested in the two new
body types on the SO chassis-a
large roomy seven passenger body
with straight lines and double cowl,
and a strictly original four-passen-
ger Sport Model.
The seven-passenger has many
desirable features for car of it's
price. The extra seats disappear
completely into the front seat backs
without the use of curtains or covers
| of any kind. Natural wood panels
in both front and rear compartments
give an added touch of elegance to
the straight line double cowl design.
The seats are deep and luxuriously
cushioned. French plated uphol-
stery of high grade leather insures
the utmost comfort Fhe top, of
Drednaut material, is provided with
| winter curtains opening with the
| doors, while the finish throughout
greatly surpasses the quality one has
learned to expect in n car of it's
price.
Everyone turns for q second look
at the Velie passenger Sport
Model. 1t is hung very low, with low
body and deep seats. Individual steps
displace the customary run-boards.
The exhaust manifold extends
through the engine hood and to the
rear with a long graceful sweep.
A two-way valve permits the use of
a silencing muffler or gives free vent
to the exhaust gases as preferred.
Equipment also includes hickory
wheels, spot light, motometer,
power tire pump and Victoria top
with roof extension and side cur
tains.
At. sixty the Velie Sport Model
clings to the road like a veteran.

car enthusiasts will readily judge
the possibilities of this speedster by
considering these factors; large six
cylinder motor, perfect ignition. ef-
ficient transmission system, 33 X
y Inch tires, and the light weight
and low suspension of the car it
self.
Velie body work and painting
have always been notlceably super
ior. The Velie mirror finish is OBJ
tanned by many coats of paint and
varnish vigorously rubbed out by
hand and given in addition to the
well-known Velie blue which is con-
sidered standard. Wire wheels will
be supplied on any model at the
usual extra cost.

company. The mile of Velie fac
tory will unquestionably have all it
can do to care for the demand.
