Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Crop - close-up of front brakes mechanism

Four-wheel braking with independent rear-wheel braking on a different set of drums."

"The compensating or balancing mechanism of the Vauxhall front brakes is easily understood. A is the pedal brake-rod, which through the pin B turns or twists the cross-piece C, to which at opposite ends are attached the cables that work the brake shoes.

The pin B, as it is free to incline slightly, finds the true centre immediately there is the slightest resistance, and thus the shoes on each side come into action simultaneously and with equal power."

From a display advertisement "This car marks a new note in motor values and design"
