This is the car that's fresher and
friskier from its own special look to
the way it takes to the road.
Those words—sweet, smooth and sassy
—seem to fit this new Chevy right down
to its tubeless tires. In the first place, it
looks the part. It has a crisp, alert appear-
ance—as trim and functional as an
arrow. You can tell that the styling isn’t
just going along for the ride.
But the real clincher is the sweet and
solid way Chevy takes to the road.
Horsepower options, you know, range
up to 245*. Come take the wheel!

Most every community has a one-crop advantage over all
other communities. Many communities have organised them-
selves to capitalise on their particular advantage, advertising
to the world that here, customers will find the beat in qual-
ity. The products are legion and range anywhere from red
peppery to roses.
Other communities hide their treasures under a buahel and
the worldpaths to their doors grow up in weeds. It's Just a
matter of discovering the treasure and telling the world about
It.
