GOOD RECORD
Old Cars Are JPlaced Into All
Kinds of Services.
What becomes of all the automo
biles?
This is the quesitou which arises
naturally in many minds, in re
sponse to the news that the auto-
mobile industry is tuning up in an
ticipation of a record-shattering
production ;in 1928. Obviously, a
certain proportion of the three or
four million cars built in this coun
try each year go to replace vehicles
which have passed out of service as
such. It is equally certain that not
all of the replaced cars have been
junked. But where, then, are they?
This is the question asked of A.
B. Batterson, director of advertis

ing for the Buick Motor Company.
Mr. Batterson answered that while
he could speak only for Buick, the
files of the Buick Bulletin contain
ed hundreds of photographs showing
these cars making good in lines out
side ordinary highway transaction.
"In the first place, fully three-
quarters of all the two million
Buicks which have been built ar~
still in service as motor cars," said
Mr. Batterson. "Of those which are
not, hundreds have been converted
into power plants of various sorts.
Some are running sawmills, some
operate pumping outfits, some are
in marine use, and many more find
useful - employment in various phases
of construction.
"We recently issued tnrough our
news service a picture of a Buick
sedan which the Northern Pacific
lines had transfonxied into a 'loco
motive' by substituting steel flanges
for the rubber tires. Sfcnce then,
we find that this is not entirely uni
que. C. Baldwin, superintendent of
the Columbus Division of the Cent
ral of Georgia Railway, has a similar
converted Buick which ho uses for
inspection work. It enables him to
keep close supervision over his track
age at a fraction of the cost of the
steam equipment formerly used, Mr.
Baldwin says.
These are only a Tew of the un
usual jobs which Buick's reputation
for power and stamina have sug
gested to users in various parts of
world. The list is being en-
larged constantly, answering at least
in part, the question that was asked.
Thousands of cars keep on earning
their way long after their value as
transportation has been extracted,
the only limit to such use, apparently,
being the ingenuity of their owners.
Call in and let a salesman of the
