The answer?
"One • is good walking

is good driving habits
driving carefully to offset
the poor vision brought on
by twilight and ’darkness,
and» keeping a sharp look-
out for pedestrians and chil-
dren on bikes as well' as for
other cars.”
Musick stressed the fact
that night traffic hazards
also claim their share of
young bike riders, those
who. fail to equip their bi-
cycles with a good head-
light, and tail lights or re-
flectors*. Additional safety
may be gained by trimming

On October 2—for the first time in Chevrolet's 49-year history—you will be able to walk into your
dealer's showroom and see two totally different kinds of cars. ■ One is the conventional 1960 Chevrolet,
brand new in appearance and more 'beautifully refined and luxurious than you can imagine. ■ The
other is unlike any car we or anybody else ever built—Jhe revolutionary Corvair, with thf engine in the
rear where it belongs in a compact car. ■ We’d like tolell you why we built two such different cars,
how we built them—and for whom we built them. *
NEW! “NO-FADE" ACTION! Crowning Color
doesn’t fade like ordinary tint*. Lock* deep in

Why two kindt of cars? Because
America itself has been going through
some big changes in the past few
years. Our cities have been straining'
at their seams. Traffic is jam-packed.
Parking space is at a premium.
And our suburbs have spread like
wildfire. People are living farther from
their work, driving more miles on
crowded streets. There is new leisure
time—but more things to do. There's
a new standard of living—and more
need for two cars in the family garage.
In short, America’s automobile
needs have become so complex that
no one kind of car can satisfy them
completely. That is why we at Chev-
rolet, keeping tab on these trends,
haye had a revolutionary compact car
in the planning stages for more than
nine years.
Thus, when we decided three years
ago to prepare for production of such
a car we were ready to build it the way
it should be built. There was no need
for a hasty "crash” program that
would create only a sawed-off version
of a conventional car.
That is why the two cars you
will see in your dealer's showroom
October 2 will be two entirely
different kinds of cars. One is the
conventional ’60 Chevrolet—brand
new in beauty, with new space inside,
new spirit upder the hood, a new
feeling of sumptuousness and luxury
never before attained by any car in its
field. There is great V8 power linked
with new thrift, plus Chevrolet’s
superb 6-cylinder engine. It is a
traditional car that comes even closer
to perfection —in silence, in room, in
ease of control, in velvety ride—than
any other car we have ever made.
The other is the Corvair, a compact
car that is astonishingly different from
anything ever built in this country.
It has to be—because this is a six-
passenger compact car, with a really
remarkable performance ... a car
designed specifically to American
standards of comfort, to American
traffic needs.
, The engine is in the rear. Among
the basic advantages resulting from
this engine location are better traction
on a compact 108-inch wheelbase and
a practically flat floor. But to be
placed in the rear, the engine had to
be ultra light and ultra short. So
Corvair’s engine is totally new—
mostly aluminum and mV' cooled; it
"weighs about 40’ per cent less than
conventional engines. It is a “flat”
horizontally opposed six—so it is only
three cylinders long.
and that
tural strength . . . it’s a welded unit
that is virtually rattle-free.
The ride is fantastic. But to get it
we had to design independent sus-.
pension at every wheel; Conventional
springing would give a compact car a
choppy ride. Right now we’ll make
one prediction: no other U.S. compact
car will ride so comfortably, hold the
road so firmly and handle so beautifully.
Now there are two kinds of cars
from Chevrolet—because it takes two
kinds of cars to serve America’s needs ,
today. If you love luxury—the utmost
in luxury—and if you want generous
interior space, breath-taking perform-
ance, automatic drives and power
assists—then the conventional ’60
Chevrolet may be your choice.
If easy parking, traffic agility and
utmost economy are high on your list
—then you should seriously consider
the Corvair. But the best thing to do
is to look these two new cars over at
your Chevrolet dealer’s ... take them
-but for a drive. It may be that the
only logical choice for your family
between two cars like this is—both.
They make a perfect pair.
leaves a lot more room for passengers.
Another weight saving: like modern
airplanes, the Corvair has no frame;
the bodyshell supplies it great struc-
