We Have an Adequate Supply of
Typing and Accounting Materials
GM
(A quick tour of some of the thoughtful new features the 1969 Chevrolets
offer that other cars in Chevrolet's field don't.)
Headlight washers
You push the windshield
washer knob and hold it, and your
headlights come clean.
Fluid is diverted to two jet
nozzles at each light lens. (Outer
lights only on duals.)
The spray removes up to
80 of accumulated dirt.
The feature is standard on
1969 Corvettes. It comes with the
hidden headlights available on
Camaro, Caprice and Kings wood
Estate Wagons. It is available on
all other models except Corvair.
Heated glass
In a moment your rear win
dow will self-defrost.
Because we've built onto it
a network of tiny ceramic strips
capable of heating the entire sur
face. Fog and frost disappear
quickly and quietly. You just flick
a switch.
The heated rear window is
available on the 1969 Caprice
Coupe and Impala Custom Coupe.
Pushbutton tire chains
You press a button on the
instrument panel and the rear
ires get a shot of "liquid tire
hain."
You spin your wheels once,
wait a moment, and you're off
with traction you wouldn't be
lieve possible on slick ice, or
packed snow.
Available on all 1969 big
Chevrolets.
Steering wheel lock
'When you own a car as de
sirable as the 1969 Chevrolet,
vou don't take chances.
When you leave it, you lock it
Not just the doors.
You lock the ignition, steer
ing wheel and transmission lever,
too.
Our new lock on the steering
column takes care of all that.
Standard on all 1969 Chev
rolets, Chevelles, Chevy Novas,
Camaroa and Corvettes.
Sorry, car thieves.
Power steering plus
The 1969 Caprice, Impala
and Camaro are available with a
new type of power
steering.
Variable-ratio
power steering.
What it
does is give
you faster
steering with
fewer turns of
the wheel.
Variable-ratio power steering
Is particularly helpful in short,
full turns.
And parking becomes un
believably easy. You'll see.
Walk-in wagons
The tailgate swings open like
a door on most of our 1969 station
wagons.
Which in itself is no big deal.
But wait, there's more.
We've built a concealed step
into the rear bumper.
You simply step up, over,
and in, j
(The way we build our
wagons, you can do it without
bumping your head, and without
acrobatics.)
Walk into a wagon soon at
your Chevrolet dealer's. 7
