Haynes Auto Company will exhibit the Haynes Light Six chassis at the Panama Pacific exposition in San Francisco within the palace of transportation. Cuppert Brothers distribute America’s first car and note the chassis will match the New York and Chicago shows with a skeleton cowl to display instrument connections.

The automobile section occupies the eastern half of the building, with uniform booths and no railings, featuring Panorama maps including a 250 foot Lincoln Highway mural. Linoleum floors, Italian pergolas, and large vases mark each Haynes exhibit with the trade name on the vase bowls.
