GRAY-DORT Dealers Lead - _,, Most good automobile dealers know motor cars-inside and out. They've watched the business from its infancy. come and go. Above all they know motor car values. They have to. city and town in Canada, that the ort dealer. Every motor car dealer knows the reason for this. Every Gray-Dort owner knows the reason. The Gray-Dort offers unequalled value to motor You will find in practically ev. leading motor car dealer is a Gray car purchasers, The $1365 % GRAY-DORT is Dominant Value What other car at anywhere near $1365 offers you these Gray-Dort qualities? A motor larger and finer than usual for light care-- 334" bore and 5" stroke--built from flawless castings and tough, high-carbon steel--and finely finished. The crankshaft weighs 40 pounds. The radiator is cellular type and the'water jackets are extra large. An improved carburetor marks this car, and a better electrical system. Starting and lighting are Wes: inghouse, as in the most expensive cars. . There's over-strength in the Gray-Dort frame of heavy channel stecl; in the husky, Chatham-built rear axle; in the long, cantilever rear springs; in the specially designed, new steering gear: in the big brakes, now lined with Thermoid. The front wheels now have roller bearings. There is anew gas tank--larger, and in the rear. Convenience of riding and driving is in the Gray-Dort. The steering wheel is of the h ight and size for tireless ith two fingers' pressure. The horn, the ignition and light switches, the clutch and brakes, all are placed for Sreatest ease in driving." . A shorter and smarter cowl now gives more room in the driving compartment. A new Gray-Dort feature has greatly increased the leg-room in the tonneau. Seats are tilted at just the proper angle for comfort. As in cars costing $2000 and upwards, the Gray-Dort now hag si rtains opening with the doors, CLEAN-CUT GOOD-LOOKS The Gray-Dort is not startlingly extreme, the Grays Dort is « car of quiet beauty--smooth lines and perfect Proportions. The smart, new top is hand-tailored in our own shops. The new hood, with its many long, narrow louvres lends just a touch of European style. French-pleated upholstery, too. And completing the picture--the wonderful Grays Dort finish--development of 60 years' coach-building-- applied by master craftsmen, Gray-Dort trained. Unquestionably there will be a shortage of these care at $1365. You had better see the Gray-Dort dealer now.
