Comfort, silence and
luxury to challenge anu
car from anywhere
There's a lot underneath the beauty of the 'G3
Chevrolet. Its roomy, comfortable Body by
Fisher screens out noise and shock. There's
instant response in a choice of G- or 8-cylinder
engines, a host of refinements to make it run
and look like new longer, and plenty more
that make it hard to believe it's a low-priced
car. But your Chevrolet dealer can prove it!
