Today, Chevrolet is maintaining its lead in sales—because, with prices reduced and quality unchanged, Chevrolet has increased its lead in value. For the first four months of 1932, Chevrolet has outsold the next leading car more than two-to-one. Drive a Chevrolet—how much more it offers than you can find elsewhere in the lowest price field. Smarter styling — Chevrolet emulates the modern lines and modish fittings of expensive custom cars. Finer coachwork—for Chevrolet, alone in its field, has bodies by Fisher, with their lasting, quiet hardwood-and-steel construction. More advanced features—because of Chevrolet’s Free Wheelings silent Syncro-Mesh gear shifting and many other up-to-date advantages. A more economical engine— because with its built-in smoothness, its speed and acceleration, the Chevrolet six-cylinder power plant costs less to operate than any other automobile engine of comparable size and power. A more thoroughly proved product—because no other 1932 motor car is backed by the satisfactory road experience of so many thousands of owners. A Greater Value than Ever—because you can enjoy all these advantages today in any of thirteen big, quality models—at reduced prices—and on small payments spread over a period of months. •* Of. .their co-operation in reducing the ( lOc WHY PAY MORE Best of all fly killers* Clean, quick, sure, cheap.
