Luxurious appearance throughout DISTINCTIVE '60 CHEVY LINE Distinctively fresh styling, increased comfort and chassis advances that promise improved operating economy keynote the conventional line of 1960 Chevroiets. More luxuriously equipped than any previous models, the presentation includes four Impalas, four Bel Airs (four-door sedan shown above), three Biscaynes and five Station Wagons. In addition, the Chevrolet display at dealer showrooms will introduce the revolutionary, compact six-passenger Corvair. Accidents, according to the I SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM National Safety Council, are the leading cause of death to school-age children. IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE as different as and THE REVOLUTIONARY Corvair BY CHEVROLET I L There's nothing like a new car--and no compact ear like this de luxe Corvair 700. Here's the car created to conquer a new field --Chevrolet's low-priced compact Corvair; The product of nine years of research and development, it's America's first truly compact car that retains the ride and 6-passenger comfort you're used to in a big one. The key to this small miracle: America's only rear-mounted aluminum engine--a lightweight 6 that's so revolutionary it can be packaged with the transmission and drive gears as one compact unit. With the engine in the rear, the Corvair's floor is virtually flat, front and rear, so there's plenty of foot room for everybody. Combined with Corvair's unique bodyframe construction by Fisher, this provides interior spaciousness comparable to many postwar conventional-sized cars. Shifting engine weight to the rear also makes for easier compact car handling and gives glued-to-the-road traction on ice, mud or snow. And with independent suspension at all 4 wheels--an advance comparable to the independent suspension of front wheels years ago--you get a poised, unruffled ride that rivals even the costliest cars. These are all things no front-engine compact car can give you. And with them you get outstanding economy and practicality that would never have been possible if Chevrolet engineers had been content to make the Corvair merely a sawed-off version of a big car. Corvair's size--some 5 inches lower, 2)4 feet shorter and 1,300 pounds lighter than conventional sedans--makes it a joy to jockey through busy streets, a pleasure to park (no need for power assists). Its revolutionary Turbo-Air 6 gets up to 30% more miles on a gallon of regular. And, because the engine's air cooled, you never have to fuss with antifreeze, you get quicker warmup (even heat for passengers comes-- almost instantly--from an airplane-type heater*). Wonderfully practical, yes. But you'll find the most practical thing of all about Corvair is its remarkably low price. Your dealer's the man to see for all the short, sweet details. America*s only car with an airplane type horizontal engine! America's only car with independent suspension at all & wheels! America's only car with an air-cooled aluminum engine! STYLING--PURE AND SIMPLE The engine's in the rear where it belongs in a compact car! Q REVOLUTIONARY TURBO-AIR C Gets up to 30% more miles on a gallon, needs no antifreeze, provides quicker warmup with less wear on parts. It's the' world's first production 6 with the ultrasmooth, space-saving power of horizontally opposed (not vertical or V-stroke) pistons. 0 ONE-PACKAGE POWER TEAM Wraps rear engine, transmission and differential into one compact unit. Takes less room, leaves you more. €> Clean, uncluttered lines shape both 4-door models--the de luxe Corvair 700 and the standard Corvair. Each has its own distinctive trim, and you get more visibility area than in many full-sized cars. Q FOLD-DOWN REAR SEAT* Works instantly, adding to Corvair's versatility by enlarging rear seat cargo space to 17.6 cu. ft. e Corvair is America's only compact car with a practically flat floor, the only one with the kind of relaxing room that U.S. motorists are used to.
