IT'S WISE TO CHOOSE A SIX A Truly Modern Car You Will be Proud to Own TT is wise to choose a Chevrolet Six ^ because this is definitely a better low-priced automobile. Priced as low as $635 at the factory, it is more modern in design, performance, ap- pearance and features than any other car in its field. It is a car to be proud of, wherever you go. More than two million owners have found that Chevrolet's modern six- cylinder design means more enjoyable motoring. That six-cylinder power is always smooth and flexible. That six- cylinder speeds are always quiet and comfortable. That "Body by Fisher" means infinitely smarter appearance and finer construction. And that six- cylinder performance, as Chevrolet provides it, is just as economical as any other kind! In selecting a low-priced car, you should also consider this fact. Be- cause the Chevrolet Six is so far ahead of its field today, it will be modern tomorrow and command a better re- sale value when you come to trade it in. Come in today. We will give you a demonstration g!adly and tell you about the General Motors Owner Ser- vice Policy, the most complete in the industry . . and the G.M.A.C., General Motors' own deferred payment plan. .
