This car is made right. Its heavy, substantial

roominess and comfort. Settle down into its

completely satisfied. The steering wheel feels easy Q
and steady in your hands. M
Put your toe on the Auto-Lite starting button, g
and the instant, hearty response convinces you
I that the Chevrolet is exactly the car you want.
And it is as economical in operation as it is §
