What?? Is that a dealership ad or a GM ad?

All I can find is that the GM Heritage Center vehicle information sheet shows 11X2 rear brakes for the '59-'60 and 11X1-3/4 for rear on '55-'57.

Ads and documentation for the '59 cars show larger brakes. Possibly a dealership employee was confused when creating ad copy?
