Tun* in HENRY J. TAYLOR, ABC Ntfwori, tvery Monday evanlnp. JUST what do you see in this handsome, tidy-sized Buick Special pictured here? The smartest bit of automobile styling on the road today? The standout beauty of tapering fen ders?the sturdy protection of a wholly new front-end design? The prestige that's in the Buick name?the solid, road-wise steadi ness Buick has always stood for? Your chance to get in on the per fect smoothness of Dynaflow Drive*?this being the lowest priced car on which that sensational new transmission is available? They're all there, every one of those things. And for a good reason that may go a bit beyond the usual idea in designing an automobile. For, a long while ago, we gradu ated from the idea that a motorcar is merely a means of getting about. The way you travel is pretty im portant too. The lift that's yours in knowing there's no prettier pic ture anywhere on the highways. The "kick" there is in a power plant that's lively and eager and always ready to get in on the fun. The comfort that's found in ah-ooil springs, a husky, steady-traveling understructure, cushions that are deep and soft and wide enough to let you spread yourself a bit. Even that extra swelling of the chest that comes from owning a car you know everyone respects and admires. In a word ? your happiness. It's never out of our mind in planning this car?nor in making very sure each dollar of cost gives you the greatest possible benefit. That's why we rather proudly ask you to go see?and try?this Buick SPECIAL. It's priced like a six, in spite of the fact that like all Buicks, it's a big-powered Fireball valve in-head straight-eight. And we honestly believe that it puts a lower price tag on your motoring happiness than any other car you can buy today! See your Buick dealer and find out about that. +Optianal at extra cost.
