Clatskanie High Announcement of the new 19- Many “Pa»ion Playa” ------- -I 30 Chevrolet models last week came right at the close of Chev rolet’s greatest year, for the sensational success of the six- cylinder Chevrolet introduced just a year ago, resulted in an output of 1,350,000 cars this year breaking by a wide margin all former Chevrolet annual pro duction records. In making public Chevrolet's plans for 1930, W. S. Knudson, president and general manager declared that with the improve ments incorporated in the new car, Chevrolet was anticipating a volume of business that will equal, if not surpass, the phe nomenal record of 1929. And, in order to accomodate an ear ly demand production is being speeded with all haste consist ent with the precision methods for which Chevrolets manufactur ing operations are famous. Scores of distinct improve ments have been made in the 1930 Chevrolet line, the factory announces. Greater beauty, ad ded safety factors, improved riding comfort and better all round performance with added power and faster acceleration are announced as features of the new line. Larger tires, small wheels, Delco-Lovejoy hydraulic shock absorbers at all four wheels, windshield and vastly improved four wheel braking system are some of the highlights. Brakes are of the internal ex panding “articulated shoe type,' >» both front and rear, those on front wheels having two shoes while those on the rear have four, These brakes, also, are fully enclosed giving protection against water and dirt. The attractive new closed bo- d:es, in a variety of colors, car ry the famous Fisher stamp of craftsmanship. Eight models, three of which are new to Chevrolet, comprise the line. Of the eight, five are closed and three are open. The closed cars are the sedan, coach, coupe, sport coupe and club sedan. The open models are the road ster, sport roadster and phaeton. The models new to the line this year are the sport coupe, sport roadster and club sedan. The six cylinder valve-in-head engine introduced a year ago, nfter four years of research and development has been further improved and * refined. Since the introduction of the six • year ago, test cars have run up more than a million miles of driving at the General Motors proving ground in the working out and the justifying of the improve ments of the 1930 car.
