WHY KNEE-ACTION WHEELS ?

HERE ARE THE FACTS ON

KNEE-ACTION

Knee Action

Each front wheel is independently sprung, “stepping over" bumps with easy riding action. wheels make the back seat as restful as the front. eliminating "back seat pitch."

The Chevrolet type of Knee Action is much safer, permitting faster speeds on rough roads and preventing the car from "swaying" or "skidding."

Water, ice and stones cannot affect Chevrolet's Knee Action, Chevrolet Knee-Action permits the wheels to move straight up and down, preventing "tyre "scrubbing" and giving longer tyre life.
