N1E REALIZE how eagerly you are
w awaiting delivery of the new Chevrolet
you have ordered from us, and we want to
pass on to you the latest information received
from the Chevrolet Motor Division, even
though that information isn't too encouraging
at this time.
1t is true that Chevrolet leads all other
manufacturers in total production of
passenger cars and trucks from January
through September 1916, despite the fact
that Chevrolet was out Of production entirely
during the first three months of this year. 1t
is also true that Chevrolet has continued to
maintain its lead in total production during
the third quarter Of 1896 And yet production
is still running far below desired levels, with
the result that Chevroet's output of cars and
trucks through September 1916 was only
1870 of the number produced during the
corresponding period Of 1871.
This means it may take many months for
the Chevrolet Motor Division to reach peak

as we wish there were.
However, we want you to know that new
Chevrolets are leaving the plants in the largest
numbers possible today The Chevrolet Motor
Division tells us it is doing everything it can.
in the face of continued suppliers' strikes,
material shortages and manpower problems, to
step up shipments to us and to all dealers, in
accordance with predetermined distribution
plan assuring each dealer Of his fair allotment
based on l94l passenger car sales. And we, in
turn, are doing our best to deliver new Chev-
rolets to our customers as rapidly as they are
received and in the fairest possible way. We
are too appreciative of your loyalty and good
will-too grateful for your patience and under
