BIZ Times Special
NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-Amplify-
ing his announcement of prices of
the two new Chevrolet lines for 1885,
w. E. Holler, general sales manager
of the Chevrolet Motor Co., states
that enclosed knee action, optional
on the Master De Luxe models, will
be available at an additional charge
of $40 list.
Mr.. Holler predicted that at least
90 per cent of persons buying Master
models in 1885 would exercise the
option and obtain knee action at
the small price difference involved.
Mr.. Holler emphasized the fact
that knee action will be built in at
the factory, not installed by the
dealer.
"Chevrolet's knee action mechan-
ISM" he said, 'is an integral part of
the car. 1t can not be installed as
an accessory. There will be no con-
versions in the field. Cars will be
available both with and without
knee action, but they will be built
complete at the factory, where spe-
cial machinery, skilled workers, and
other factors all focus on the pro-
duction of this major feature, which
is offered only by Chevrolet and
builders of higher-priced cars"
