Aging N.C. Homes
Have High TO."
North Carolina has 404,598 hou
sep that are at least. 30 years old
and are beginning to suffer from
the infirmities of old age, but
present-day wonders of "rejuve
nation" could improve many of
them so they would represent bet
! ter, or as good, values than com
parable new homes bought on
today's market.
This Is one finding made in a
study of the "Improvement <3uo
tient" ? or modernization value
? of old homes just completed by
the Minneapolis ? Honeywell
Regulator Company. Real estate
operators Interviewed estimated
that, generally speaking* It would
cost $4,000 to $5,000 to give an old )
house a new look, but that the In- 1
creased value would Justify the
expenditure.
While lenovatiog costs natural i
ly vary considerably with the lo* I
callty and the house, a typical j
modernization job would run >
something like this:
Installation of modern kitchen, i
including new counters, cabinets
and sink, $700; electric dishwash- !
er, automatic washing machine I
and garbage - die Josal unit, $600; i
modeminzlng bathroom, includ
ing new fixtures, 91,000; new
roof, $275; combination alumi
num screens and windows, $300;
insulation, $500; additional ftx>
tures for wiring and electrical e
quipment, $150; modern heating
plant, $400; painting, inside and
out, $700 to $750.
Where central heating systems
are used, the smallest outlay
would go for modern automatic
heating controls. A new plug-In
clock thertpoetat which saves
money by turning down heat at
night and turning h up in .the
morning, now coots less than $40.
Owners can install them themsel
ves, in a few minutes, if they
have old type thermostats, thus
saving service costs.
About 45 percent of funds loan
ed by the Farmers Home Admin
tration last year went to War vet
erans.
Demonstrations in the use of 2,

HERE'S THE NEW 1950 BUICK SUPER 126, companion body-typo to the equally now
RoAomastm 130. Both aro ?hortor than la?t yoar's 4-door Sedans ? yet 4 inches longer In
wheelbqse. In both, the difference U'used to give you real ttretch-out room in the rear <*t.
YVhat the boys did here really calls for
some medals.
We gave thein the job of coming up with
something that was bigger inside?for
room and comfort? longer in wheel base?
always important to good riding <|ualities
? yet unbulky and easy-handling in over*
all dimensions.
Just look how well this tidy number meets
these "impossible" specifications!
Item one? rear-seat cushions are a full foot
wifier than last -year's SUPERS -.nd ROAD
MASTKR8.(
Item two? in every dimension? leg- room,
head-room, hip-room, shoulder-room?
this rear-seat compartment is bigger than
previous models? and nearly four inches
longer, fore and aft, than other 1950 Buiek
interiors.
Item three? wheelbases are tbr longest of
our 1950 lme . On the SUPER it m 1 25'/j"
instead* of 1 2 1 ',4" ? on the ROADMASTBK
130%" instead of 12614".
^et ? and here's where the magic comes
in? /Aw whole tar is shorter over -all. Actually
less from bumper to bumper than previous
Buicks in these aeries.
That means easier parking, easier tucking
away in family garages, easier maneuver
ing in crowded traffic*
there are some other things too. An extra
rear-quarter window not found in standard
4-door Sedans. A- different upperstructure
styling that makes this body-type stand out
as something pretty speoial.
Even special names that let you say* "1
drive a SUPBR 126" or "Mint's a Komi
MASTKR 130, " just byway of being different.
\es, we think we hit on a happy idea in
the "I>ongfellOwa," as they're coming to
be known. They are not longer, on the out
side; but there's a two-way stretch? in
width and length? in the rear compartment.
You're going to like that? as you'll see by
calling on your own ' Buick dealer. If he
doean't have one On hand, be can get it
pretty promptly? a?4 at a price and on a
deal you'll have trouble matching, much
less beating, anywhere else. ~ ;
