CHEVROLET cars ‘ Vet away” in a hurry or
just idle along, all to your choosing.
In crowded traffic it is satisfying to know that
you are master o f the car you are driving and that it
will respond to your slightest touch.
Chevrolet Motors are flexible and always do
your bidding —in the country, on straightaways or
on city streets.
Chevrolet cars are "all-around” good cars —
mechanically sound and answering every demand o f
the owner.
The GOOD motor car is not built in a minute,
a day or a month.
It requires years o f knowledge and experience.
The building o f a reliable car demands brains,
experience and ample resources and it takes a har­
monious combination o f these three to produce a
worthy product upon which a manufacturer can build
a lasting reputation.
Chevrolet cars have been good cars for years.
The reputation o f the Chevrolet is good.
