QUIT
SMOKING
I've been a heavy smoker now for the past
three years. Smoked so much I made my
driver pass out once.
Then I met a cute little six-cylinder job
who told me about the mechanics at
L T. Kolb Chevrolet
in Taft. Well, I had their ring and valve
job and now I feel better.
Get such good mileage now my owner
decided to keep me. Call the boys at
Kolb's if you can't kick the habit, YouH
be glad you did.
