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 /Ais 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-risks. 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 on rear doors, Sealed Beam Headlights out of the way of bumps, Two-Way Direction Signals with automatic cut-oiT. You get all of these things now in Buick. Get them at a price that suggests a six instead of a husky, man-size eight. Just go try a Buick. Look it over, inside and out. And get the Prices. List figures begin at $895 V^delivered at Flint, Mich.; transportation based on rail rates, state and local taxes (if any), op tional equipment and accessories—extra.
