Motor Car Value on the Market
BUT our opinion would not be of any particular importance to you if it
did not coincide with the f aits. We only want you to look the market
over carefully. Then we absolutely know that you will agree with us.
In the first place there is the remarkable Maxwell engine. No four
cylinder motor of ita size has more "pep" or go to it regardless of the price of
the car it drives. It will climb hills on high gear b a manner that will
astonish you. It is quiet and works day in and day out with a sound, business
like hum that is good to hear.
Any engineer will compliment the design of the chassis. And those
who are not engineers cannot fail to note its simplicity and staunch construc
tion. As for what it is made of, we can trathfully say that better material
cannot be bought
The operation of the car is simplicity itself the brakes are powerful (
the springs are long and flexible the axles are strong and the steering
apparatus, like the rest of the chassis, is built to standthe most severe service
the car may ever have to face, wherever or however it is used.
Then if you consider looks important, and most people do, you will not
find a more attractive car than the Maxwell at anywhere near the price.
And it comes to you fully equipped with all the attachments you will
ever want or need; electric starter and lights, demountable rims, one man top,
self-ventilating, rain-vision windshield, etc. All for $6S5 (five passenger,
touring car) or $635 (two passenger roadster).
We know you can't beat it,
