The advent of this new Four makes the Buick #922 line complete. It offers to purchasers of a car of this size all the quality and service that go to make up the name “‘ Buick.” uid The engine, of courte, is of the time-tested Buick Valve-in-Head type. The year-after-year concentra- tion of Buick’s engineering skill and experience in building Valve-in-Head motors assures the highest standard of performance obtainable today. Every other unit is of a quality equal to the power lant. The whole assembly constitutes a perfectly lanced chassis which is of typical Buick construction. The equipment of Cord Tires is merely evidence of the quality which characterizes the entire car. Two open and two closed body types mounted on the Buick bui{t chassis comprise the new series. Even the most casual inspection of the details of design and workmanship will reveal that full measure of qual- itywhich motoristshave learned toassociatewith Buick. Obviously a high grade automobile—a genuine Buick roduction—the prices listed below make this great “our even greater. A value such as this is possible only because of the ¢ombination of Buick engineer- ing skill devoted to the one ideal of quality, Buick production facilities developed over nearly a quarter of a century, and Buick’s nation-wide distribution and service organization. The Buick Motor Company is proud of the Buick Four. It has the faith of Pod experience in this newest addition to its line. It places upon it uhre- servedly the Buick guarantee carried by every Buick automobile produced. That its confidence is well placed is manifested not only by the keen interest nger Roadster $ 935 975 1475 1650 Me at 109% dort dl Prices F. ©. B.
