Series are differentiated by styl-
ing, both inside and out; by orna-
mentation, appointments for motor-
ing conveniences and the luxury of
cushioning the trim. Designed to
conform to a varied price range, the
three series might be classified as
"Standard" (One-Fifty), "De Luxe”
(Two-Ten) and “Super De Luxe"
(Bel Air). The Two-Ten and Bel
Air series offer a choice of two-
tone interiors, wrap-around rear
windows on closed bodies, and ap-
pointments such a> clocks, glove
compartment lights, two sun vis-
ors and cigarette lighters. The en-
tirely new Bel Air series has sev-
eral added distinctions. In exteriors,
the bright metal body moulding
has been broadened over the rear
fender as a base for the series name.
Rear wheel panels and wheel discs
are standard equipment. Three ad-
ditional luxury fabrics in passenger
compartments, plus full floor car-
pets, are other evidences of rich-
ness in the Bel Airs. The generous
variety in choice is further exempli-
fied by four convertible top colors,
each harmonizing with a different
exterior color.
The new Chevrolet higli com-
pression engine that will be install-
ed in all 1’owcrglide equipped mo-
dels has a displacement of 235 cub-
ic inches. In addition to an impres-
sive increase in horsepower over
any previous Chevrolet engine, the
new power plant is more economi-
cal. The combustion chamber has
been revised for higher compres-
sion. Full pressure lubrication has
been adopted and pistons are of
alutnium. Hydraulic valve lifters
are continued.

The principal difference in the
improved Powcrglide is the inclu-
sion of a new automatic operation
that will add appreciably to econ-
omy and acceleration. With the
new version, the car starts in the
former low range, then moves au-
tomatically into the crusing range.
To take advantage of the low range
for passing in trafiic, the driver
merely depresses the accelerator
pedal. The return to the cruising
range is subsequently automatic.
The torque converter itself is big-
ger and more efficient.
More power, increased accelera-
tion and greater economy as well
are present in the standard engine
that powers all 1953 Chevrolets ot-
her than Powerglides. A revised
ignition system contains a new dis-
tributor, new -park plugs, and spark
t>lug caps that are moisture-resist-
ant.

ing brake lever has a ‘T’ handle.
Better ventilation in the driver’s
compartment results from enlarged
air ducts. Instruments are directly
in front of the driver. The speed-
ometer is enclosed in a circular
section with other die!- grouped in
an oblong base. Another feature is
the in-huilt plastic arrows on the
panel to show the use of the turn
