Fin¬ ally, fed up with my bragging, the agent turned to me and said; "If what you did yester- 1 day still looks big to you, then you haven’t done much today.”; We all like to be nostalgic at times, I guess, but nostalgic is a habit-forming durg—a narcotic. It is a refuge of the aged, the rose-scented goose grease on the toboggan slide to senility. When we turn our back to the future—when we hide our faces from what lies ahead to escape the challenge of the unknown and find refuge in looking back to the golden days of yesteryear and see them as the flowering pageantry of glory—you may be sure that the drums already have begun to beat the long roll of taps! careful that tne We must be dreams of strumming banjos and moonlit magnolias of yes¬ terday are kept in proper pers pectlve, else we’re lulled to sleep by the strains and overcome by the heavy aroma.

Why two kind* of cars? Because America itself has been going through some big changes in the past few years. Our cities have been straining at their seams. T.affic is jam-packed. Parking space is at a premium. like And our suburbs have spread wildfire. People are living farther from their work, driving more miles on crowded streets. There is new leisure time—but more things to do. There s a new standard of living—and more need for two cars in the family garage. In short, America’s automobile needs have become so complex that no one kind of car can satisfy them completely. That is why we at Chev¬ rolet, keeping tab on these trends, have had a revolutionary compact car in the planning stages for more than nine years. Thus, when we decided three years ago to prepare for production of such a car we were ready to build it the way it should be built. There was no need for a hasty “crash” program that would create only a sawed-off version of a conventional car. That is why the two cars you will see in your dealer’s showroom October 2 will be two entirely different kinds of cars. One is the conventional ’60 Chevrolet—brand new in beauty, with new space inside, new spirit under the hood, a new See all the new ChevroletsOctober 2 at your local M. & W. Chevrolet Co.

I believe the first step is a new water system —for where waiter goes—Dade \ County grows! GUILTY PLEAS Judge John W.

There is great V8 power linked with new thrift, plus Chevrolet s superb 6-cjalinder engine. It is a traditional car that comes even closer to perfection—in silence, in room, in ease of control, in velvety ride than any other car we have ever made. The other is the Corvair, a compact car that is astonishingly different from anything ever built in this country. It has to be—because this is a six- passenger compact car, with a really remarkable performance . . . a car designed specifically to American standards of comfort, to American traffic needs. The engine is in the rear. Among the basic advantages resulting from this engine location are better traction on a compact 108-inch wheelbase and a practically flat floor. But to be placed in the rear, the engine had to be ultra light and ultra short. So Corvair’s engine is totally new — mostly aluminum and air cooled; it weighs about 40 per cent less than conventional engines. It is a ‘ flat horizontally opposed six—so it is only three cylinders long . . . and that leaves a lot more room for passengers. Another weight saving: like mo’dern airplanes, the Corvair has no frame; the body-shell supplies it great struc¬ Wow!

But to get it we had to design independent sus¬ pension at every wheel; conventional springing would give a compact car a choppy ride. Right now we 11 make one prediction: no other U.S. compact car will ride so comfortably, hold the road so firmly and handle so beautifully. Now there are two kinds of cars from Chevrolet—because it takes two kinds of cars to serve America’s needs today. If you love luxury—the utmost in luxury—and if you want generous interior space, breath-taking perform¬ ance, automatic drives and power assists—then the conventional *60 Chevrolet may be your choice. If easy parking, traffic agility and utmost economy are high on your list —then you should seriously consider the Corvair. But the best thing to do is to look these two new cars over at your Chevrolet dealer’s . . . take them out for a drive. It may be that the only logical choice for your family between two cars like this is—both. They make a perfect pair. V
