This is a similar advert to one posted earlier, but is a better quality scan. Found in the October 1958 Journal of Agriculture.

A closer look:

Don't you love the way that the artist does the hubcaps to something like the actual size but gives the car 16" wheels with tyres sized something like 165/70x16?  The larger size rolling stock makes the car appear to be lowered when it has almost factory ride height.

The artist(s) must have been prescient, knowing the large diameter/low profile fad that would arrive some 35-40 years after they did their illustrations.

Cheers
