The profits which makers of assembied cars pay to parts- makers are put into additional value in the R-C-H. The R-C-H introduced the left-side drive with center control and hand- brake in moderate-priced cars built in quantity. This increases the safety and convenience of automobile operation. } The R-C-H is exceptionally simple and_ easy for the beginner to earn, The R-C-H has gained the nickname of “The Gum-Sheo Car” be- cause it is so quiet. Owners of R-G-H cars do not offend the public with clouds of smoke, R-C-H cars are provided with large and small electric head lights. THE CAR The best materials, the highest-grade workmanship, and thl most up-to-date ideas in construction. Wheelbase—110 inches, Motor—Long stroke; 4 cylinders cast en bloc; 3% inch bore, 6 inch stroke. Two-bearing crank shaft. Timing gears and values enclosed. Three-point suspension, Steering—Left Side. Irreversible worm gear, 16-inch steering wheel. Throttle ‘control on steering column. Control—Center Lever operated through H-plate integra. with universal joint housing just below. Hand lever emergency brake at driver's right. Foot accelerator in connection with hand throttle. Springs—Front, semi-elliptic; mr full empfic and mounted on. swivel seats. Frames—Pressed steel channel. Axies—Front, I-beam,.drop-forged; rear, semi-floating type. Transmission—Three speeds forward and reverse; gear, selective type. Construction—Drop-forgings wherever practicable; chrome nickel steel used throughout all shafts and gears in the trans- mission and rear axle; high carbon manganese steel in all parts requiring special stiffness, Body—Full 5-passenger English type; extra-wide seats. sliding The strong llnhu ‘offensive to others, can be turned off on crowded thoroughfares. They have soft toned “Tally-ho” horns that do not offend pedes- trians like other shrieking signals. R-C-H Cars do not have muffler cut-outs, which are exceedingly offensive to owners of horses, pedes- trians and other automobilists. The R-C-H does not leak-gil on the readw:y when left standing. The car is easy to start—easy to steer. The clutch throws out easily. Slight pressure on the brakes holds the car on steepest hills. The foot or hand accelerator is flexible, enabling the car to travel fro.n three to forty smiles per hour and taking easily the roughest roads and steepest hills. The R-C-H is famous everywhere as the easiest riding car. The R-C-H smooth body surfaces and clean cut chassis design make it the easiest car to wash and keep spick and span. R-C.H accessibility makes the car the easiest to repair, and repair bills the smallest, R-C-H prices on repair parts are the lowest quoted by any automo- bile manufacturer in the world. The R-C-H is a most economical car in gasoline and oil consump- tion and gets great mileage from tires. The R-C-H body is most comfortable and affords greatest protec- tion from wind, rain and dust. The doors are wide and front seats have dash ventilators. There is ample room for three adults in the tonneau, and plenty of room lengthwise so that there is no cramping of the limbs, The R-C-H introduced the long stroke four cylinder motor in pop- ular priced cars built in quantity. It has done much to demonstrate that a long stroke four has all the desirable qualities of a six-cylinder motor, without the complicated mechanism, extra weight and lack of economy. The R-C-H introduced Jiffy Curtains—one of the greatest inven- tions for the motorist’'s comfort. The R-C-H introduced non-skid tires all around as regular equip- ment on automobiles, thereby making motoring safer, reducing chance of puncture and prolonging the life of the tires. The R-C-H introduced the first high-grade speedometer ever used as regular equipment on moderate priced motor cars. The R-C-H introduced the rich and durable red &nd black color combination as standard in quantity production of automobiles. The R-C-H introduced the rear view mirror as regular equipment on automobiles, greatly aiding in the safety of automobile operation. The R-C-H introduced tie cne-pisce windshield, doing away with the useless lower glass and lmprovlng the vision. The R-C:H introduced demountable and quick-detachable rims for moderate priced cars built in quantities. The R-C:H is the chief exponent of high- gud- mmu. More than 5000 Bosch magnetos now in use on R-C-H cars are giving per fect service, The R-C-H introduced the straight-side, no- rim cut tireg—neoi less transmission gears—vibrationless motor. The R-C-H has brought the mnuldmg of gray iren to its greatest perfection. Over 5000 cars now in use have not produced one 4'- fective casting. The R-C-H worked out the use of drop forgings fo the greatest degres, adding greatly to the strength and durability of the car. In over 5000 cars now in use in which ars assembled one million drop forgings, there has not been one single case of defect. Two Passenger Roadster, 110 inoch wheel base, , f..0. b. Detreit.
