But now you can have a full-gr<' ,vii V8 in it. A Turbo-Fire 283* that turns out 195 hp. It's the kind of machine that doesn't take much coaxing to set in motion. (Especially when you consider it has over 60% more power than the Chevy II that won North America's toughest rally last spring--the Shell "4,000.") And we've also added a choice of a 4-speed Synchro-Mesh transmission* with a floor-mounted shift. But in case your tastes run somewhat milder, we should point out you have a pick of three Other engines as well. The standard 4 (on 100 Series sedans), the standard 6 and a new 155-hp 6*. And, of course, whatever one you decide on, you're getting a car with the pure and simple integrity of a Chevy II. (Upkeep has been even further reduced this year by such refinements as larger self-adjusting brakes.) It's a simple matter to spot one of these '64's by* styling touches like the new grille design and trim accents. But we'd like to suggest a more memorable way. Drop down to your dealer's and drive one.
