The Easiest Car for Her to Drive
If you're choosing a low-priced car that has to meet
with feminine approval—be guided by the experi-
ence of tens of thousands, and buy a Chevrolet!
Like no other car of its class, Chevrolet combines
those features which make a car easy for women
to operate with those qualities that women instinc-
tively demand in an automobile.
It is easy to start, steer and stop. Itis simple and safe
to handle under all conditions. And, best of all, it
offers the inimitable smartness, elegance and lux-
ury of bodies by Fisher on all closed models.
Just bring her in and let her see for herself how
well Chevrolet meets her ideals of fine quality.
