Image
SS 396 Sport Coupe with front and rear seat belts, standard. Use'em, And insist your passengers do likewise. Chevelle SS 396. And the SS doesn't stand for "Standing Still." Nosiree.Any time we take a trim package like Chevelle and Equip it with a 396-cubic-inch Turbo-Jet V8, the effect is anything but static. 325 HP is standard; 360 costs a bit extra, as does 375, which is tops. They all swing though. Some just more than others. But then we take this same specially powered Chevelle, give it stiffer springs and shocks, red stripe tires and a floor-operated 3-speed, and - voila! you have got handling that'll send you in search of the nearest winding road. Finally we add a hood with two sinewy bulges in it and a jet black grille, just for looks. Temptation just struck, eh? Find out what an SS 396 can mean to you at your Chevrolet dealer's. Exhilarating The Chevrolet Way.

Chevrolet Caprice

If you hear a squeak in this car it’s probably the piccolo player on your FM stereo The pleasant sounds you hear, the unpleasant you don't. That's one of the luxuries of riding in this new Caprice - with its acoustically insulated Body by Fisher, gentled by a Jet-smoother ride. Take the road noises you hear in ordinary cars, for instance. The closest thing to these you're likely to pick up are the sounds of Bourbon Street and Tin Pan Alley - coming in loud and clear over the 4-speaker multiplex AM-FM stereo radio you can order in any of the four opulent new Caprice models. Other creature comforts include Strato-bucket front seats and a fully instrumented console available in the Custom Coupe. Why not have a quiet talk about a new Caprice with your Chevrolet dealer. Caprice - elegance the Chevrolet way
