A de-icer for the carburetor. A sychromesh first gear. (Over 3,000 such changes in the past 16 years.) That's evolution. Add fins to a VW one year? Take them off the next? Not us. That would be revolutionary.

The only thing revolutionary about the VW is our whole approach to automobile design; Never change the VW for the sake of change, only to make it better. Which explains why most parts are interchangeable from one year to the next. And why the bugs have been worked out. And why a used VW is worth almost as much as a new one. It's no wonder our car is still ahead of its never out of style.

Even if you don't happen to be driving tha most evolved VW of all. Our' 63. INC. "YOUR ONLY LOCAL AUTHORIZED DEALER" TROY-SCHENECTADY Latham (Between Nortkway and Route 9) ST 5-5581 SATURDAY HOURS: 9 A.M. to 6 P.M.--SALES ONLY Service Dcpt.
