CHEVROLET ANNOUNCES
new €lnt
109lii
, huskier models feature an entirely new engine,
giving increased power on less fuel than ever!
___mm.
THE 1934 line of .Chevrol^t^triitl^s—
truck-built for truck service all the way
through—feature the Blue-Flame engine—a
great new development that will be wel
comed by every truck buyer in America.
Here are the remarkable facts: The new
Chevrolet trucks are even bigger than last
year’s models—bigger in bodies, with
stronger, heavier frames, huskier transmis
sions and rear axles, and larger brakes. They
will deliver more power at the time when 1
you need it most. They will haul bigger loads
than ever at an even faster pace. Yet,
^/thanks to the new Blue-Flame engine.
operating costs are actually lower than before
—and that means the lowest in the haulingfield.
The net result of all these improvements is a
line of trucks like no others on the market—
the first to offer such a combination of big ca
pacity, great power and unequalled economy.
