BREWED, AGED AND BOTTLED BY ANHEUSER-BUSCH, INC:,;; ST. LOUIS, MO, U.S.A. | | | OME car makers say springs make the ride—and $o we give every Buick four of the soft, gentle coil springs practically all cars use on front wheels only. Some say the drive is important— how power is transmitted to the rear wheels. We agree—and use a torque-tube drive, that takes up all the thrust, freeing rear springs of driving pulsation: Some stress tires—so you’ll find low-pressure casings on every Buick, mounted on our otvn kind of Safety-Ride rims. Some play up shock absorbers — we make ours fast, soft and sure in action, to wash out all “after-bounce.” FOUR-WAY FOREFRONT This rugged front end (1) sefs the style (2) saves on repair costs—vertical bars are i vally replaceable, (3) avoids “locking horns,” {4) makes parking and garaging easier. Then there are frames—and car weight — and engine mountings, which on Buick are a very special kind used nowhere else. Tcy'rc all important—yet the plain truth is no one of these things—or two or three—gives a ride you can truly call “unruffled.” We feel it takes all of them — springs, tires, shock absorbers, drive, engine mountings —care= fully and precisely brought into balance with each other. Y)u can see why we think so in any Buick —SPECIAL, SUPER or ROADMASTER, You can feel it on cobblestones and car tracks, washboardy gravel and weather-pockéd macadam, country lane and city street. You even feel it on boulevards, which grow still smoother when you travel them in a Buick—especially when it has Dynaflow Drive¥ So we would like you to try a ride that is truly “unrufiled.” Free of harshness—undisturbed by jounce and jitter— level — steady-going — smooth. Just ask any Buick dealer for a chance to try out any Buick. You'll find it “the ride of a life time” —and. the buy of a lifetime too! *Dynaflow Drive is standard on ROADMASTER, op- tional at extra cost on SUPER and SPECIAL models.
