Corvair Monza Club Coupe
Who needs muscles ?
Do you know how easy it is to take a corner
with a Corvair or park one? Turn this
newspaper sideways and it will give you a
pretty good idea. The wheel handles just
about that easily.
The Corvair’s engine is in the rear, for
not only greater traction, but more balanced
weight distribution. And that’s what makes
the steering so completely effortless.
The engine is air cooled, too. No radi
ator. No water or antifreeze. No boiling
over or freezing up to worry about. It takes
the weather and the terrain as it comes.
AT YOUR CHEVROLET DEALERS
So think about those trips to the beach
this summer, those bright sunny days and
balmy moonlit nights.
And besides, looking at it from a very
practical point of view, it’s Trade ’N’
Travel time right now at your Chevrolet
dealer’s. He’s got some beautiful buys.
But you had better hurry before somebody
muscles in ahead of you. Spring’s here.
Summer’s coming fast. And with these sporty
good-looking Corvairs selling the way they
are, he who hesitates will want to kick
himself.
