The Greatest Improvement
^ m—
Riding Comfort Since The Introduction
of Pneumatic Tires
It a brand new type of
It nIvn the problem
which 1mm baffled automotive en-
|jmn hew to combine riding
cem/ort with light weight and
Our new Three-Point Cantilever
aake this possible,
are the first springs of
kind and they are made of
vanadium steel. They are
with Overland.
Iscauss of these springs, Over
4 combines the riding qual-
ities of large heavy, expensive, long
cars, together with the
and economy of small
light cars. '
With lM-lnch wheelbase, Over-
land 4 has the luxurious riding ease
i( UMftch gpringbase.
The exclusive, Three-Point Can-
tilever Springs cushion the car so
that it rides well on ail roads: they
reduce choppy rebounds and side
swaying, protect the car from road
shocks and prolong its life, mini-
mize twisting or racking of frame
and body, enable the car to hold
the road better.
The car and passengers ride
smoothly as though floating, free
from road shocks that the springs
ward off.
But this new riding comfort, pos-
sible only with these Three-Point
Cantilever Springs, Is but one of
the advantages of Overland 4.
Its light weight makes possible
great economy of gasoline and tires.
High quality materials insure
durability. All vital parts of the
front axle and steering gear and all
highly stressed gears and shafts for
driving the car are made of alloy
steel.
The equipment list of Overland 4
is high grade, including Auto-Lite
Starter and Lighting System —
Electric Horn—Marshall Divan Up-
holstery Springs — Demountable
Rims—Three Speed Transmission
—Slanting Rain Vision Windshield
—Tillotson Carburetor —U. S. L.
Batteries and many other high
quality conveniences.
In every respect Overland 4 is a
quality car. The body is all stt 1,
all enamel, the brightest, hardest,
most lasting finish.
Overland 4 has been tested for
two years and more than 254,NO
miles over the Rocky Mountains,
prairies, through deep mud and
scorching deserts—through quick
sharp climatic changes. As a result
of these tests we were able to judge
the car's performance under every
condition and to perfect it before
offering it to the public.
There Is no previous car of any
size or price to adequately compare
with the charactar of service Over-
land 4 introduces.
The farther you ride in it the
more you will appreciate it. Come
in, see the car and ask for booklet.
The demand will be greater than
the supply for a long time.

r'er, $845; Coupe, $1325; Sedan,
