It'a one of 16 Chevrolet models in 3 series, which add up to the widest choice in the low-price Held. Some Chevrolet advantages worth considering when you're ready to choose a car . . . Next to a new house, a car is probably your most important purchase. Here are some facts to help you make up your mind about which make to buy. Don't you rtRroe that it's well worth while to weigh all the factors carefully before you buy any new car? Ia'Vs consider the major reasons why people choose one make over another and see how the lDfi;! Chevrolet stands in those respects. t-'tylinjj You Can Stay Proud Of Siylinj;, of cour e, is a matter of per sonal taste, l'lirause we think Chev rolet is the Ixst -looking car in its field, doesn't necessarily mean you'll think so, too. l!ut we can tell you that t he ma jority of our showroom visitors prefer Chevrolet styling and compare its apearance most favorably with cars costing a great' deal more. And you might consider this: Chev rolet styling is the ncuvst in its field. It's the kind of styling that stays new, too. For it is based, not on fads or ext remes, but on the fundamentals of good, modern design. The One Automobile Body Almost Everybody Knows It's not really surprising that so many people prefer Chevrolet's appearance. For Chevrolet is the only low-priced car with Body by Fisher. And Fisher, as you know, is the only automobile body manufacturer with a world-wide reputation for styling, craftsmanship and quality. The Many Benefits of High-Compression Power When you drive a new Chevrolet uul we hope you'll do that soon), you'll not ice these things: fas tor acceleration from a standing start; greater passing ability in traflic and on the highway; the new ease with which you ciimb steep hills. These are just some of the Ix-nclits of Chevrolet's new high-compression power, In gearshift models, there is an advanced 108-h.p. "Thrift-King" en gine with a 7.1 to 1 compression ratio. Teamed with the new Powerglide automatic transmission is an entirely new 115-h.p. "Blue Flame" engine with 7.5 to 1 compression ratio. It is the most powerful engine in Chev rolet's field. A Great Gain in Gasoline Economy Along with remarkable new perform ance, Chevrolet's advanced engines give you far greater gasoline mileage. In fact, this year marks the most important gain in economy in Chev rolet history. And that includes sub stantial savings on over-all upkeep, as well as on gasoline. New Getaway in the New Powerglide The new Powerglide automatically drops into "Low" range for starting and for passing in city traffic. Then, as you glide along, it slips smoothly and almost imperceptibly into cruis ing range. The results are much faster and more positive acceleration, and much lower fuel consumption. The First Power Steering' in a Lew-Priced Car This year's Chevrolet is the only car in its field to offer you the extra ease and convenience of Power Steering, optional at extra cost. With it, you can spin the wheel with the strength of one finger. You can seesaw in and out of tight parking places without the slightest strain. You get an addi tional cushion against road shocks and jars. Driving is easier, safer. A Smoother and a Safer Bide Chevrolet is the heaviest low-priced car. Model for model, a Chevrolet will weigh as much as 200 pounds more than the other makes. You often hear people say they buy high-priced cars because they're heavier, hold the road better and ride better. Well, isn't it logical, then, that Chevrolet's extra weight (which comes from extra strength of body and frame) would result in a better ride? Chevrolet is the Lowest-Priced Line Certainly, price is one of the most important factors of all. We're glad to be able to tell you that Chevrolet is the lowest-priced line in its field. Now, you might well ask, "How can Chevrolet oiler me more and still cost less?" There is a simple, logical answer to that. Remember that Chevrolet builds more cars than any other manufac turer. Chevrolet, along with General Motors, has greater facilities for research, for engineering and produc tion. So, isn't it reasonable that these greater facilities bring manufacturing advantages and economies which Chevrolet can pass on to you in terms of higher quality at lower price? An Endorsement Given . No Other Car Again this year, more people are buy ing Chevrolets than any other car. Obviously that wouldn't be true unless people liked Chevrolet better. Unless Chevrolet offered more things people want more value. So, when you're ready to choose your new car, wouldn't you agree that Chevrolet merits your careful con sideration? We welcome your visit at any time, so that you can look the car over yourself and try it out on the road. 'Combination of 115-h.p. "Blue-Flame" engine and Powerglide automatic transmission optional on "Two-Ten" and Bel Air models at extra cost. MOKE PEOPLE BUY CHEVROLETS THAN ANY OTHER CARl' Fulleton Chevrolet Company
