NEW CHEVROLET SIX
TO BE READY JANUARY 1
Decker Chevrolet Co., Announce Start-
ling New Car for Next Year.
With the coming January 1 will
come a new and startling Chevrolet.
It is a Six with the Fisher body and
all the refinements of the four and
at the same price.
Passing on to the motoring public
the benefits of economies arising out
of tremendous volume production, the
Decker Chevrolet Company of Belle-
fonte, today, introduces “the Out-
standing Chevrolet of Chevrolet His:
tory—A Six in the Price Range of the
Four.”
In making this important announce-
ment, C. G. Decker, local Chevrolet
dealer, points out that the sensation-
al public reception accorded the car in
recent years has enabled Chevrolet at
this time to offer the added power,
spead and smoothness of six cylinder
performance at practically the same
prices that contributed so much to the
world-wide popularity of the four.
Preparations for the greatest year
in its history are now being made by
the Chevrolet Motor Company. Pro-
duction of the new car was started
last week and the company’s fifteen
giant factories across the country,
will be turning out cars to be ship-
ped to dealers by December 15. De-
liveries to the public will start Janu-
ary first.
Although no definite schedule has
been set for 1929, Mr. Decker declar-
ed that production of the new car
would probably exceed 1,250,00 units
thereby surpassing all former records.
Seven models of passenger cars and
three commercial types comprise the
line, which according to General Mo-
tors officials, embodies the greatest
dollar value ever offered in an auto-
mobile. Included in the passenger car
line are five closed and two open mod-
els. All bodies this year carry the
famous Fisher stamp of craftsman-
ship. The commercial car line em-
braces a new and larger Utility Truck
of one and one half ton capacity, a
new light delivery chassis and the
Sedan Delivery.
From an appearance standpoint as
well as from inherent design, the car
is completely new with a wide range
of attractive colors and fine car ap-
pointments formerly found only on the
more expensive makes.
Despite the score of advanced fea-
tures, prices remain practically the
same, chiefly as a result of the influ-
ence of tremendous volume produc-
tion. The passenger car range is
from $525 to $725, f. o. b. Flint, Mich.
The prices, according to models, are
as follows: Roadster, $525; phaeton
$525; coach $595; coupe $595; sedan
$695; sport cabriolet $695; convert-
ible landau $725.. The commercial car
prices are: light delivery chassis
$400; one and one-half ton Utility
truck chassis $545; one and one half
ton Utility truck chassis with cab
$650 and the sedan delivery $595. All
prices are f. o. b., Flint, Mich.
One of the body features is adjust-
able reclining seats.
First showings of this new high
class low priced car will be made in
the big centres of distribution next
week and it is promised that before
January 1st the local dealers, the
Decker Chevrolet Co. will have all
models of the sensational car in their
show room here.
