Even its looks,-carryrweight
PRIMARY OR of a tnick is, of course, to carry londs.
And this Blue Chip GMC is massively framed,
ruggedly axled and mightily engined to do that with
matchless competence.
But it also carries a lot of weight with people who judge
your business and you by your equipment."
ou can see what a picture it paints, with its classi
cally smart lines -the flair of its panoramic windshield'
the luxury of its cab. Xo doubt about ,; com
manding respect!
And o doe its Blue Chip performance. The V8
engine plays no second fiddle to a passenger car'i
flashing response. The Hydra-Matic Drive wastes no
shifting time in traffic permits neither engine nor
rear-end strain in pulling loads.
So at work cr play, this Blue Chip GMC speaks well
ot you does well by you and makes good vour
judgment every day you own it.
You'll be proud AND wise to put your name on a
Blue Chip GMC. Come in and talk it over.
