See it now at
CHARLIE'S AUTO SALES
There isn't a roomier intermediate-size car on the market
than the 1969 Rebel. There's more room for your head,
shoulders and legs. There's an improved ride for you to
experience, too, while you're enjoying all the room. Rebel
has new steering linkage and a new wider track this year. Why
not see the '69 Rebel for yourself soon? If room, style and
performance are high on your list, it's about time you
rebelled and got yourself a Rebel.
