Meet your friends at Long’s

TWO months ago, in the public print, we said
that this looks like Buick’s biggest year—and
we weren’t fooling.
But what has happened—and continues to happen
— is almost beyond belief.
People buy up these stunning new Buicks practi
cally as fast as we get them from the factory. Buick
production—already revised upward several times
— keeps forging ahead to new highs every month
to meet the mounting demand.
And Buick sales keep soaring higher and higher and
higher— outstripping by far the phenomenal success of
last year—the success that moved Buick into the f,Big
Three” of America*s best sellers.

hundreds of thousands just won’t do without? It’s
many things.
It’s styling that’s boldly distinctive and fresh as
tomorrow. It’s beauty of line and beauty of interior
decor. It’s a ride that’s level, firm and steady. It’s
a new sweetness of handling. It’s great power—,
walloping new V8 power of record might.
But above all, it’s a new kind of performance, from
a new kind of automatic transmission that was bora
