So has railroading. Union Pacific, now in its centennial year has been keeping pace with this major Pacific Northwest Industry through constant research into better ways to handle and move these products to Eastern markets. YesterdayTodayTomorrow. 1869 1969 pulling together...Union Pacific and the Pacific Northwest Built-in "guard rails" There's a strong steel beam built into every door of every 1969 Caprice, Impala, Bel Air, Biscayne, Kingswood Estate Wagon, Kingswood, Townsman and Brookwood. We call it a side guard beam, and it looks like one of those guard rails you see along the freeway. That's what it's there for: To guard you. To strengthen the door and put a more solid wall between you and the outside world. Not a glamorous feature. But you'll have to admit, worthwhile. Computer-selected springs Maybe you'll order your new Chevy equipped to the hilt. Or maybe you'll order it with hardly anything on it. Either way, you're going to get your full measure of our re nowned ride. Because we go to the trouble of programming each car's equip ment load into an electronic computer. The computer then tells us exactly which springs to use, depending on the car's weight and the way it's distributed. Chevrolet, the only car in its field with computer-selected springs. Fenders inside fenders We could have skipped this. (The other cars in our field do.) But we're as anxious as you are to keep your beautiful new Chevy looking beautiful and new. So: Up inside the regular fenders we've placed a second set. They do all the in-fighting. Catch all the splashed-up rain, slush and road salt. Stop the kicked-up stones. While your "outers" just sit there looking pretty. Astro Ventilation The other two cars in our field give you air intakes down by the floor. So do we. We also give you two up on the instrument panel. And all four of them are adjust able so you can regulate the flow of air just the way you like it. Even with all the windows closed, you'll be comfortable in side. You get air without wind. Without noise. Astro Ventilation is stand ard, now, on all the big Chevrolets. The theft-thwarter On the steering column there s a lock. Only Chevrolet has it, in Chevrolet's field. You turn the key and it locks three things: Your ignition. Your steering wheel. Your shift lever. When you own a car this tempting, you don't dare take chances. Biggest standard V8 in our field Ask any car enthusiast, he'll tell you: Chevrolet builds great engines. Especially V8s. And this year there are six great V8s available for the big Chevrolet. Standard: Our 235-hp 327-cubic-inch Turbo-Fire. Another thing: We've lowered the price of several of our bigger V8a along with our automatic transmissions and power disc brakes. Which makes it possible for you to buy a '69 Chevrolet for even less money than you could last year. Show up for our Showdown. You can't lose. Putting you first, keeps ui first.
