Built-in “guard rails”
There’s a strong steel beam
built into every door of every
1969 Caprice, Impala, Bel Air,
Biscayne, Kingswood Estate
Wagon, Kingswood, Townsman
and Brookwood.
We call it a side guard beam,
and it looks like one of those
guard rails you see along the
freeway.
That’s what it’s there for: To
guard you. To strengthen the
door and put a more solid wall
between you and the outside
world.
Not a glamorous feature.
But you’ll have to admit
worthwhile.
Computer-selected springs
Maybe you’ll order your new
Chevy equipped to the hilt.
Or maybe you’ll order it with
hardly anything on it.
Either way, you’re going to get
your full measure of our re
nowned ride.
Because we go to the trouble
of programming each car’s equip
ment load into an electronic
computer.
The computer then tells us
exactly which springs to use,
depending on the car’s weight
and the way it’s distributed.
