Maybe you’ve had a yen for a hardtop but couldn’t quite squeeze it
into your budget. If so, this baby’s for you! It’s the hardtop as only
Chevrolet builds it. Long, low and plenty saucy, like its convertible
cousin. It’s an honest-to-goodness hardtop, too—no center pillars when
you roll down the windows. Nothing but fresh air and a picture-
window view. Best of all, this big, beautiful ‘‘Two-Ten’’Sport Coupe
is priced right down with the two-door sedans in Chevrolet’s field.
It lists for less than any other leading hardtop sold today. Come in and
see what a walloping bargain it is*
