A million dollars and more were poured -. int‘0 research and testing - design arid tools—engineering, production and com ponents—to team up the combination of ride f&atures you’ll find on a Buick—and on no other car in the world. A million dollars and more was the price paid to work out control of end sway and side-roll on curves—to double check vertical “throw” with shock absorbers and big soft-acting coil springs for all four wheels —to V-hracc the torque-tube keel and X-brace the frame — to cushion hotly and engine — and to silk out tlie whole operation with Dynaflow Drive.1' You may not care how the job was done, or what it cost.
