CHEVY! YOU
CAN’T BUY ANY
CAR FOR LESS
..UNLESS IT’S A
LOT LESS CAR!
Anyone who’s looked around knows
the majority of Chevrolet models—6" s
and V8’s together—list for less than
comparable models of other low-priced
can. But the price tag alone is only
one of a whole raft of reasons a
Chevy does better by your dollars.
Nothing near Chevy’s size and price can
match the Full Coil cushioning of its
ride, or the fine, finished workmanship
of its Body by Fisher. That even applies
to some cars that cost a lot more. You’re
up in the higher price bracketa before
you find a car that moves as quietly as a
Chevrolet or offers the inner space that
Chevrolet does.
Or look at the extras Chevy gives you
—at no extra cost—that others in its class
can’t offer at any price. Shock-cushioned
steering. Safety [’late Glass in eveiy win-
dow. Keyless locking of all door*. Crank-
operated vent windows. Chevrolet offers
the widest choice of power teams, too.
Drive a Chevy just once.
You’ll have a tough time
settling for anything less.
