OVERLAND LIGHT
FOUR MAKES HIT
New Model Possesses Good
Style With Low Sweep
ing Body Lines
Although the Willys-Knight Eight,
the Country Club and the Big Four
and Light Six attracted their share
of attention at the auto show, a great
deal of interest was displayed in the
Light Four just brought out by The
Willys-Qverland Company. In order
to thoroughly lntroducs its merits, a
stripped chassis was featured at the
exhibit.
The new Light Four at $055 is a
car of exceptional quality marketed
at a price that does not do the car jus
tice, as it places it in a price-notch
below its proper classification.
This car possesses good style, be
ing built low with harmonious full,
sweeping body lines. The doors fit
Hush with the body: door hinges and
handles are all concealed, giving the
car a clean, trim appearance that is
stylish in the extreme.
The windshield is the latest sloping
style. It is also built-in and curves
with the cowl. It is part of the car,
and looks it.
High crowned fenders are curved
to blend gracefully into the lines of
the body.
The finish of the car is a deep, rich
Erewster green, set off attractively by

SHEE the new model B-4-24 Brl&coe—• bfg,
I powerful looking cai. It will make you
say, "This Briscoe Mtisfies my ide*l."
Building it entirely in our own new factories
allowed us to make the price $665.
A motor, additional equipment;
■ finer finiih make* a car value, we feelj
never equalled before. Ten big factories
and an experience dating from the beginning j
of the industry enables Mr. Briscoe to give 10 |
much for so little.
P ■LEASING design, fine upholstery, unusual I
room, cajy-tounderstand controls, c- j
cessibility of every working part makes j
this a car that fills your every desire.

gray wheels and black fenders and
trimmings.
In keeping with tli• Light Four's
appearance is the performance of its
motor. It is powerful enough to go
anywhere that a six, eight or twelve
cylinder car will go, its makers as
sert, yet it is able 10 give unusually
hitch mileage per gallon of gasoline.
Vacuum system insures uniform gaso
line feel under all road conditions.
In addition to these good qualities
the car possesses that most desired of
all motor car advantages—easy riding.
The soft cushions, the long and
resilient cantilever springs, tho four
lncli tires, the J 06-inch wheel base and
the proper balance of construction,
absorb all jolts. Five passengers can
ride comfortably in this car.
All possible driving comforts and
conveniences have been included. The
starting and lighting are by electricity.
The switches for the lights, ignition
and horn are located just below the
steering wheel. Clutch and service
brake pedals work so easily and
smoothly that a young girl can oper
ates tliein. These can also be adjusted
to the length best suited to the
driver's reach.
Gear shift and emergency brake
levers are In the center, on the right
hand of the driver, yet so placed that
they do not interfere with passage in
or out of the car.
The instrument hoard is one more
indication of the car's complete equip
ment. Speedometer, ammeter and oil
Indicator are high up on the dash,
within the driver's direct line of
vision. An electric light Is so placed
that It illuminates the entire instru
ment board at night. The lamp also
serves as an Indicator that the tall
light is working properly, as the two
are connected in series, so that if the
tail light goes out, the dash lamp will
give immediate warning.
The side curtains fasten from the
inside—a big advantage in a sudden
shower. The gasoline tank is in the
rear of the car, where it can be filled
without disturbing any of the passen
gers or submitting them to the annoy
ance of gasoline fumes.
The Light Four is. also made In a
two-passenger roadster design at
$650.
"How is it possible to manufacture
such a car at such a price?" has been
the question repeatedly hurled at John
N. Willys, president of The Willys-
Overland Company.
"Concentration of our buying power
and distribution of sales an . factory
costs over our entire line or cars," Is
his reply.
"We have one executive organiza
tion. one factory management, one
purchasing unit, one sales expense,
and one group of dealers to plan,
produce and sell our entire line. The
tremendous economies or this method
are obvious."
"The low price of our Light Four
model is characteristic of the great
values we are offering the automobile
buyers of all classes by our complete
line for 1917."
