First place at the National Automo-

the basis of annual sales volume-is
again awarded to Chevrolet.
This is the fourth consecutive time
that Chevrolet has achieved this
honor. And the reason lies in the
exceptional value which Chevrolet
cars consistently provide.
This year, in its bigger and better
Six, Chevrolet is offering an out
standing example of the value which
has brought it such record success.
