Drive the Champ I
First the automotive writers said, "Keep your eye on Pontiac . . .
this one's a sleeper"! Then the California Highway Patrol
chose Pontiac after three days of grueling competitive tests of
six of America's top performers. Next, in the top stock car event of
the year, NASCAR' s 160-mile Daytona Grand National,
Pontiac outperformed everything on the beach including
super-charged and fuel injection cars!
NOW IT'S YOUR TURN Slip into that roomy driver's seat. Gently
nudge the accelerator and feel Pontiac's barrel-chested 347 cu. in.
Strato-Streak V-8 go into action. Put its instant response
and Precision-Touch Control to a traffic test. Choose your own
rough stretch and feel it disappear under Pontiac's Level-Line
Ride. Then head for the open road and give that deep-breathing
power plant a chance to show its mettle in the fresh open air.
Man you've got a champ on your hands lor sure! And to make it
even more fun there's a chance to win a free Pontiac! Just follow
the instructions at the right you may be a winning driver!
HERE'S ALL YOU DO!
