Last year more people bought Chevrolet trucks than ever before.
Stands to reason. Chevrolet makes a truck for almost every kind of
job. So many components are offered you can set up a Chevy to do
your special job the way you want it done. Cost is low. Resale high.
Chevy’s been the No. 1 truck since 1937. Put a new '66 model to
work. It’s bound to be No. 1 on your job for years.
