Larger scale production, ho w ever, has made it possible to incorporate in this new type touting car a number of de cided improve ments with out increas ing its cost to the purchaser. A comparison extendingover a long period of years will reveal the fact that thepresent price is actually the lowest at which the five-passenger open car has ever been solj.
