YOU can figure it out for yourself from
what you see in daily traffic. Buick's
pacing the pack. Has been for years.
It called this year's style turn a year ago.
It set current performance standards
in '38 with its Dynaflash engine. It still
leads the crowd for riding qualities with
BuiCoil Springing, now in its third year.
So where's a more logical place to look
for next year's "big news" than in this
year's big and roomy Buick?
It may be smoother engines. Buick is the
only car that now balances power plants
after assembly.
Coil springs all around may come. Buick's
never need lubrication, are practically
indestructible, even cut down skid-cisks.
Maybe it'll be heavier frames ? Buick
has the heaviest of any car of its price.
Or maybe many of Buick's "extra
touches" like the safety-latches op rear I
doors, Sealed Beam Headlights out of K
the way of bumps, Two-Way Direction I .
Signals with automatic cut-off. | ^|r
B
You get all of these things now in Buick.
Get them at a price that suggests six ... I
instead of a husky, man-size^eight?
Just go try a Buick. Look it over, inside
and out. And get the pricts. I
List figures begin at $895 ^delivered at I ~^B]
