THE SUPERLATIVE go CHEVY

Here's the car that introduces
a whole new decade of design
with so much that's new
and different the other ones
can only hope to come close.
It's the superlative go Chew
rolet-with new space in
side, new spirit under the
hood, new splendor in
every clean-etched line.
Freshly shaped contours rake
back from the unified new
grille to the jaunty rear deck,
fitted with craftsmanship
you'd expect only on the
most expensive makes. In
side, there's room to sprawl
in, room to sit tall in
generously provided by
Chevy's sofa-wide seats and

extra margin of hat space.
And there's even more leg
room for the man in the
middle-thanks to the way
Chevrolet engineers have
shaved down the trans
mission tunnel.
Out on the road, as Chevy's
Full Coil ride will persuade
you most gently, there's not
a car near the price that
comes close to the hushed
comfort of this one. And,
adding to your sense of
silence and solidity are
thicker, newly designed
rubber body mounts that
do an even more efficient job
of filtering out road shock,
tire hum and vibration.

solely to Mr.. de Lagarde.
Inote in this Report that there are certain people pin
pointed whereas other people were deliberately left out
from questioning. Mr.. de Lagarde is not to be blamed al
together. I think the committee, which administered that
program, should be blamed solely and not Mr.. de Lagarde.
Mr.. de Lagarde only happens to be the Chairman. He was
one member of that committee administering the affairs
Of the Land Authority. But good care was taken, to my
mind, to keep other people out.
