RUUkUkK, A SHOP I'D MEVEJl IVE EWV A CHAWCE T& tORST ME J More About Chevrolet Wildfire enthusiasm kindled through out the country last week when the new Chevrolet line for 1928 went on display took particular account of the many mechanical innovations embodied in the new car. . Thousands who viewed' the new models noted that the whcelbase was increased and bodies . rhade roomier and more beautiful, also that the me chanical features had been developed to a measure heretofore unknown in the low price class". Outstanding developments in the engine and chasis that received wide spread. endorsement were the increased speed and . power of the new car, easier steering, four-wheel brakes of RUBBED on throat and chert; Viclo doet teo things at once: ' O) It is vaporized by the body beat and inhaled direct to the in flamed air passages and (2) It stimulates the skin like an old-fashioned poultice and "draws cut" the soreness. UVAPORUD ncwTtTelsistirh marking an advanced trend toward riding . comfort, and, smoother engine performance. 1 he last mentioned feature was achieved by the use of constant clearance alloy "invar strut" pistons which make for smoother, more ef ficient motor performance. Further contributions toward, this - end were gained by raising the compression ratio and by stepping "tip the valve lifts. Through these changes maxi mum power is developed. Other changes in the. engine arc the addition of a breathing system to eliminate the . annoyance of engine fumes; a new two-port exhaust, and a cilencing engine enclosure. The four-wheel brakes arc of non locking design the product of Chevro let laboratories plus the facilities of General Motors laboratories and prov ing grounds. Front brakes arc two shoe unenergized internals, while the rear brakes . arc the energized ex ternal, self wrapping type. Front and rear brakes have been proportioned to prevent side drag or pull. Each brake has -an individual adjustment at the wheels, while "stops" have been provided to make the adjustment pro-, cess especially easy. Easy initial j pedal application throws the front i "kes into action. Purlin r applica tion throws A)vX brakes harder inio -ictioii and also brintis the rrar brakrs into full (day, so that it is possible to slide the rear wheels on dry pave ment by wing full pressure but not the front wheels. The effect of this, according to Chevrolet engineers is to get uniform wear on the brake lining. 'tae springs also are of exrtadordi nary interest. Realizing that, all un comfortable spring action is the re sult of rebound after striking" a bump, worm and car fclecna i:ni;.u-!.-:,j, including tall bearings in the steering knuckles, and by ir.a easing the steer ing ratio front 8. to 9.5 to I. The four-inch increase in whcelbase con tributes greatly to the riding quality of the car, with less pitching and bet ter road holding ability. The front axle has been enlarged" and strengthened to .accomodate the new brake attachment. A fan shroud' has been added for more efficient cooling, and a hoft of other de tails combine to maKC the Chevrolet Chevrolet engineers set about to in- for 1923 the best performing, .most rffllCfl tnr rcrw e$ flirt Vmm'iiwvo rA . . rf i t . t 1 1 ... i 11 crease the friction of the "springs and thus check the rebound. This end was achieved by equipping the springs with special rebound checks. Two checks are on , each spring located half way between the center spring shackle and the spring end. These rebound checks are in verted bow shaped steel leaves .as sembled under high- pressure against the top of the spring leaf, the ends pressing against the top of the leaf, increasing the resistance. So much has the spring friction been increased by this new device that the car is said to ride 50 per cent better than with old type springs. The rebound checks also offer great er resistance to bumps. " Greater ease of steering was made possible by adopting a ball bearing efficient and dependable mechanical, unit ever built by the company. , ,, GENERAL INSURANCE See me for Life, Fire and other forms of In surance. : Ed J.
