Dramatic Proof of Chevrolet's Success!
Everywhere in Canada, consistentlY, more Che-
vrolet cars are sold than those of any other manu-
facturer. And now, to a greater extent than ever
before, the 1955 Chevrolet is the favorite of
Canadians from coast to coast.
This Is Important To You!
Because Chevrolet builds so many more cars, each
one costs less to make. That's the simple, provable
effect of volume production. And this saving is
passed on to you in the form of more value, and
more features for the money than. you can get
with any other car on the market. Also, compare
Chevrolet's prices and you'll know for sure at
least one reason why so many more people buy
Chevrolet year after year - especially this year.
• Day by day. Chevrolet gains in
popularity -value- sale!
