Chevy Styling
Outstanding In
The New Models
Chevrolet takes its longest
stride into the fine car field with
its 1965 passenger cars, plus of
fering the widest variety of lux
ury models and product features
fn its 54-year history.
On display in dealer showrooms
today, will be 45 models in five
distinctive lines of new Chevro-
lets. Of these, 30 will be “sport
models”—convertibles and hard-
tops.
There are all-new cars in two
lines-:
The regul A r Chevrolet, long
time industry sales leader, moves
to a new prestige plateau with the
greatest comfort and luxury ever
offered.
The Corvair makes a dramatic
advance with its first major styl
ing change in five ye A rs.
Customer approved design, with
significant styling refinements, is
continued for the Chevelle, Chevy
II and Corvette lines. The Co. tte
also becomes the first American
car to provide four-wheel disc
brakes as standard equipment.
Among approximately 400 ac
cessories and optional feAtures
available on 1965 Chevrolets is the
first FM stereo system offered by
an auto maker. Another is a tele
scoping steering column to give
greater driving comfort for Cor-
vairs and Corvettes.
With its new models, Chevrolet
hopes this year to establish its
third successive industry sales
mark, S. E. Knudsen, generA]
manager, declared.
“For 1965, Chevrolet is keep
ing pace with the public’s growing
preference for prestige transporta
tion with the widest possible cus
tomer choice of options and fea
tures to fit individual needs,” he
said.
Following are highlights of the
five members of Chevrolet’s “fam
ily” for 1965:
Regular Chevrolet — The top
selling line is an entirely new
automobile for 1965. It is the most
luxurious car ever offered by
Chevrolet.
Interiors offer greater roomi
ness—threee inches more shoulder
room—plus increased leg room,
both front and rear. Front tun
nels are substantially smaller. The
luggage compartment has a flat
floor for easier loading.
The all-new styling features an
entirely new look. Square front
fenders sweep through the body
into gracefully contoured rear
quarter panels. The grille is
framed by deeply recessed lights.
•Beneath the new body is an
equally new cahssis. A number of
improvements result in greater
ride and handling characteristics.
The 119-inch wheelbase is retain
ed.
CORVAIR—Chevrolet’s popular
small, sports-type car makes the
first major styling change since
its introduction in the 1960 model
year.
For 1965 Corvair is longer,
wider and lower while offering in
creased engine power. It retains
its 108-inch wheelbase plus the
air-cooled, rear-mounted engine
and frame integral body which
make it unique among American
built cars.
Corvair’s model lineup for 1965
emphasizes increased sportiness.
Pillar sedans and the coupe have
been dropped. The seven new
models are either convertibles or
two- and four-door hardtops.
A new top-of-theline series, the
Corsa—available in either con
vertible of sports coupe—replaces
the Spyder models. The turbo
charged engine, available only in
Corsa models, is increased from
150 to 180 horsepower.
The redesigned Corvair interior
gives increased shoulder room and
entrance height plus more leg
room in the rear seat of sport
sedan models. The new dash panel
has recessed instruments. Corsa
and Monza models—including
Monza sport sedan—have bucket
seats in color-keyed, all-vinyl in
teriors.
Among new body features for
1965 are an improved heater and
defroster system, ventilated rock
er panels, flush-mounted wind
shield and rear windows are im
proved door locks. Convertibles
offer all-electric top mechanisms.
CHEVELLE—Chevrolet’s new
est car was a quick favorite with
the motorist, recording 300.000
sales in its first year model year.
For 1965, the Chevelle line is
expanded to 12 models in four
series, including a new economy
series, the “300.” The car will
continue its 115 inch wheelbase.
In styling, the 1965 Chevelle
has a fresh front end design.
There is a new hood, grille and
bumper and fenders on all models
plus a special back-accented grille
for the Malibu Super Sport mod
els. The rear end features larger
taillights and a new rear cove
area. There is also a new optional
black vinyl roof cover for sport

It’s longer, lower, wider—with comforts that’ll
have many an expensive car wondering why it
didn’t think of them first. More shoulder room,
more leg room up front. Curved side windows, an
instrument panel that’s a conversation piece. In
fact, just about everything’s new right down to
the road. And even that’ll seem newer hecaoso j
the Jet-smooth ride is smoother than ever*

Here’s all that made Chevelle America’s most
popular new-sized car—plus some new surprises.
Like those cleaner, holder lines. Like the silky way
its new ride skims over the choppiest roads. Like
Y8 power that’ll make yon think we stole some of
Corvette''s stuff—which we did. All told, five engines
are available from a quieter six to a Y8 that comes
on 300 horses strong.

It may be the expensive-est looking thrift car
you’ve laid eyes on. But thrifty it is. The big
difference being that Chevy IPs marvelous mechan
ical efficiency now wears a debonair new look. And
offers a new range of engines, including a new
300-hp Y8. You could get the idea that saving
you money was the last thing we had in mind—if
it weren’t for that price sticker on the window.

From Russia
CHARLOTTE—C. A. Dufford,
a citizen of Newberry, is one of
five South Carolinians who will
be heard on Radio Moscow’s Eng
lish-language broadcasts to the
North American area of the
world.
Dufford and four others, while
visiting in the Soviet Union re
cently, were asked by Radio Mos
cow officials to comment upon
their tour of Russia. Their ans
wers were heard by short wave
radio operators in the entire
Northwestern area of the world.
This interview, with added com
ments by WBT commentator Allan
Newcomb, will be rebroadcast on
WBT Radio this Sunday night at
7:30 and will be available to New
berry listeners at that time.
Newcomb uses the interviews
with the five South Carolinians to
point out Soviet methods of brain
washing the English - speaking
world, and says that South Caro
linians being gracious and polite
by nature have no choice but to
compliment the things they have
seen in a foreign country, when
asked by their hosts for an opin
ion of this type.
Newcomb also comments on the
background of claims made by the
Soviet radio forces.
In addition to WBT’s Carolinas
audience, next Sunday, Dufford’s
interview will be heard by hund
reds of thousands of other Am
ericans, during the next week, as
WBT’s syndicated rebroadcasts of
Radio Moscow programs are sent
out to various stations across the
country.
The Russian broadcast series,
developed by WBT and Allan
Newcomb in 1959 and winner of
a Freedoms Foundation Award,
was adopted by the U. S. Junior
Chambers- of Commerce as a 1964
project with the aim of placing it
on all major stations in the na
tion.
Other South Carolinians to be
heard on Sunday night’s program
are Paul Stansbury, city attorney
of Darlington; Walter Gregg,
Bennettsville mayor; D. C. Huff,
former Lancaster mayor and Ker-
mit J. Clardy of Dillon.
