. . . !N NEW AND ADVANCED STYLINC-The new long,
low, sleek lines of the 1953 Chevrolet set new standards
of beauty in the low-price field. Here you will see
careful detailing and a richness of appointments always
before found only in much costlier cars.
. . t IN HIGH-POWERED PERFORMANCE—77ie most pow
erful engine in the low-price field! The entirely new
115-h.p. “Blue-Flame” engine in combination with new
Powerglide* brings you new high-compression power
and a wonderful gain in economy, too. In gearshift
models you will find the advanced high-compression
108-b.p. “Thrift-King” engine.
... IN SMOOTH, SIMPLE AUTOMATIC DRIVING-Expect
faster getaway with Powerglide’s new automatic starting
and passing range . . . and new economy, too. Chevro
let’s new Power Steering* takes over 8(f per cent of the
work of steering, makes parking unbelievably easy.
... IN KONOMY AND VALUE-Now, you’ll get many
more miles out of every gallon of gasoline. You’ll save
on over-all operation and upkeep, too. Yet Chevrolet
remains the lowest-priced line in the low-price field.
... IN AMERICA'S FAVOR—Again this year—as in every
single postwar year—more people are buying Chevrolets
than any other car. In fact, latest official registration
figures rijow that Chevrolet is over 25% ahead of the
second-place car. Nearly 2 million more people now
drive Chevrolets than any other make.
* Optional at extra cost. Combination of Powerglide automatic
transmission and 115-h.p. “Blue-Flame” engine available on
"Two-Ten” and Bel Air models only. Power Steering available
on all models. ,
