On the side of the vesti-bule opposite to the door a seat for two persons wasbuilt in, and on the door side a folding seat was placed,permitting complete utilization of the vestibule when thedoor is not in use. All of the seats were covered withrattan. With a wish to have a completely sanitary automobile, all ofthe old grooved and reduce moldings were removed andreplaced with plain ones. Incidentally this significantly im-proved the look. Rico sanitary strap hangers,push buttons and buzzers, Consolidated auto heaters andAtchley staffless brakes have been among the devices whichwe added to make the car as worthy of the name safetycar as attainable.
