The Chevrolet
“Four-Ninety” is Popular for It is Complete.
The thought of the Chevrolet “ Four-Ninety.” with its
electric starting and lighting equipment, “ hits home” more
emphatically when you have another kind of car, without
this important equipment.
And the Chevrolet is not a cheap car in any respect
It is not turned out under great pressure in enormous
quantities. Each car is given special individual attention,
and, for this reason, the Chevrolet "Four-Ninety” compares
favorably with cars in the higher-priced class.
You should own a "Four-Ninety.”
You will like it and will be pleased with it for it is com­
plete in every respect. The new series of this type is
equipped with demountable rims, one-man top, tilted wind­
shield and has u number of other refinements.
And the price is not prohibitive.
I^et us demonstrate this model today. Let us show you
what it is able to do. Let us put it to power and speed tests.
And, in addition, let us tell you about its splendid econ­
omy record. The Chevrolet is a miser when it comes to
using gasoline.
We will gladly demonstrate at your convenience.
