car whether it be a chevrolet pontiac oldsmobile buick or cadillac that patience will be more than rewarded when we hand you the keys to one of these great new general motors cars for here in our judgment are automobiles ahead of their time far and away the best in each of their respective classes we know how difficult it is to wait even a day for a car of general motors exceptionally fine quality but we believe you will understand that we and general motors are as eager to deliver cars as purchasers are to obtain them unfortunately the cars produced so far this year are far fewer than we and the factory had counted on general motors headquarters at oshawa sums up the situation thus even though our rate of production normally exceeds that of any other manufacturer we have been able to build up to august 1 only a small percentage of the number of cars we built up to that date in 1941 our own produc tion like that of the industry in general is still far below normal because of frequent shortages of essential materials and parts strike after strike at the plants of our suppliers has seriously impeded our progress toward full production and the cumulative effect severely hampers both manufacturing and pssembly while production is restricted so in proportion are shipments of cars to us as- production increases we are assured of getting our proportionate share of the total number of cars from the factory but we want you to know that as quickly as these cars are received we will speed deliveries to our customers we thank you again for your understanding and patience confident that when your turn comes to enjoy the brilliant new standards achieved by the new general motors cars you will be thankful you waited smis remember our car service is your best
