Mrs. Amelia Balfour, Publicity Chairman The exciting new idea behind the motor amic Chevrolet Th Btl Air 4-Door Sedan on of 14 new Fisher Body beauties in three new teriet This is the true story of how Chevrolet and General Motors shaped a new idea in steel. Like most good ideas, this one is pretty simple. ChcTolet and General Motors set out to build the first low-priced car that would : bring you the very freshest and finest styling. bring you the most advanced engine design and engineering features. bring you the performance and ride never before avail able in a low-pi iced car. bring you the finest workmanship and materials. All this in Chevrolet's price field? That did take some doing! And isn't it logical that only Chcv rolet and General Motors have the people, skills, resources and fa cilities to carry out this exciting new idea? Here is how this new Chev rolet changes all your ideas about cars! Real Show-Car Styling'. Tour eye tells you the Moioramic Chevrolet is no styling "pakh-up" job. A rakish, low profile . . . soft swiftness from its sleek rear fenders to its wide-eyed Sweep-Sight windshield. ..anew outlook for motoring. i A Sensational Ride! You live the new idea instantly . : . you glide ; ; . actually glide because spherical joints "roll ith the punch" of the road in Chevrolet's new Glide-Ride front suspension. And outrigger rear springs mean new balance in turns : : : turns made so effortless by new ball-race steering. And when you stop suddenly, new Anti-Dive braking control checks that nosing down in front . ; : you get more level stopping. Tube less tires mean much greater protection against blowouts. And with new high-level ventilation there's fresher air. the Power Beyond Compare! You also feel new idea quickly . . . quick power like a pan ther's paw with the new "Turbo-Fire V8" (162 h.p.) and two new "Blue-Flame" 6's. And a 12-volt electrical system gives you better ignition, faster starting, greater electrical reserve for any power assists you might desire. You have a transmission choice of Overdrive and automatic Powerglide (optional at extra cost) or standard shift. Won't You Try It? Here, we can only tell you how successfully the Motoramic Chevrolet expresses the new idea behind it. But the car itself can quickly show you! Come in for a demonstration drive, won't you, first chance you get.
