THERE'S ONLY ONE PROBLEM WITH OFFERING
A HAND-CRAFTED CAR FOR UNDER $25,000.
WE CAN'T OFFER MANY.









      It's unfortunate that in
this day and age of high-
speed assembly lines, many
people have come to regard
a certain amount of slip-
shod workmanship in a car
as inevitable.
      To these people, the
Bertone Coupe by Volvo will
come as a pleasant surprise.
      The Bertone Coupe
is assembled under the
watchfull eyes of craftsmen
in one of Europe's most
prestigious coachworks:
Bertone of Turin, Italy. Each
body panel is carfully fit
ted by hand; each seam is
hand-burnished. Inside,
sumptuous glove leather
has been painstakingly
hand cut and hand sewn.
The wood paneling is hand-
polished to an elegant gloss.
      Obviously, when you
build a car this slowly and
carefully, you can't build
many. In fact, fewer than
1.300 Bertone Coupes will
be available this year.
      But if you're furtunate
enough to obtain one.
you'll be getting fine Italian
handcraftsmanschip, solid
Swedish engineering,
and a long list of luxury
appointments-all for
thousands less than you'd
pay for any other hand-
crafted car in the world.
      So visit a Volvodealer
today. And purchase one
of these rare species while
you can.

Volvo's start at $9,495. Bertone Coupe model shown suggested retail price $20,560. P.O.E., taxes, dealer preparation, delivery charges and Lambda Sond ® additional.
