OUR REPUTATION STANDS BEHIND
THESE USED BUICKS
TWO of Buick’s greatest qualities are absolute depen
dability—and amazing long life! That is why any
used Buick, bought from a Buick dealer represents the
greatest used car value that the market affords.
As Buick dealers, we stand behind the used Buicks
we sell. And we stake our reputation on them because
we know that they will give satisfactory service.
You can buy a used Buick—or any other used car—
on a small down payment. We will take your present
car in trade.
BUICK’S DOUBLE-DROP FRAME
The Buick double-drop frame makes possible a lowswung body
without loss of head-room or road-clearance. And its extra-sturdy
construction contributes^ greatly to the long life and dependabil
ity of Buick cars.
