The all-new features include: A completely re-styled car which is longer, lower and wider and emphasizes flowing sculptured lines from the dual headlamps to softly flared rear fenders. A X-shaped frame which allows a lower silhouette but retains ample head room and increases leg room and luggage space. Two suspension systems for a more luxurious ride along with remarkable handling, stability and durability. Sturdy coil springs, front and rear, are standard. A new “Level Air” system which automatically adjusts to all load weights is optional. A 348-cubic inch engine which is new from fan to flywheel. De signed primarily around a new combustion chamber, the optional Turbo-Thrust V 8 offers greater torque for improved mid-range performance. Chassis-body tiesign integration to supply exceptional structural strength and greater rigidity. Forward-mounted steering link age which provides more respon sive action and reduces road vi bration to the steering wheel. Some idea of the fresh newness of the Chevrolet line is suggested by the new body groupings and identification. tn recognition of the growing popularity of station wagons, an exclusive five-unit series of this body type has been established. The Bel Air series is continued, but adds among its six models a sumptuous sport couple and con vertible under the Impala name- GRAVEYARD OF THE ATLANTIC - By DAVID STICK Factual Accounts of Shipwrecks Along the Outer Banks $5.00- at Your Bookseller or from the Dare Press, Kitty Hawk, N.

In the middle range of the low priced car bracket is a Biscayne series, with two sedans. The bot tom end of the price spread will be occupied by three models mak ing up the Delray series. In 1957 comparable series were known as Two-Ten and One-Fifty, respective ly. Over-all lengths have been ex tended a full nine inches to a new measurement of 209 inches. The wheelbase is up two and one-half inches to 117%. Roof lines have been lowered up to 2% inches, yet design skill has retained ample passenger headroom. In looks, the cars have an air of liveliness. Because of the thoroughness of the transforma tion, stylists and engineers were able to correlate their ideas into a single unit of bumper-to-bumper progress. Dual headlamps, a grille with fine grid concave ribs and a low, flat hood unbroken by ornamenta tion, distinguish the frontal view. Varied two-tone color patterns, a judicious use of chrome moldings and decorative panels give each series an individuality and supply the latest examples of the indus try’s new art of “sculpturamic” styling. The rearward treatment also is unique. Avoiding sharp fin protrusion, rear fender lines sweep outward from the body, then curl around the tail light ensemble to THE COASTLAM) TIMES, MAX TEO, N.
