THE! r ; SWEET WAY a '56 Buick rides on all sorts of roads iS something you find nowhere else on wheels. Capricious roads that twist and turn -- unruly roads that"rock and roll --tired roads, battered and beaten -- they all seem to wear company manners the moment a Buick approaches. Why? Simply because Buick comes with what it takes to put any road on its best behavior -- the completely ride-engineered combination of chassis, engine and automatic drive that is obtainable in no other car. And that's gospel truth whether you drive a new SPECIAL, CENTURY, SUPER or ROAD MASTER. No other car matches the firm, true tracking of Buick's own ride foundation -- buttressed by brawny X-braced frame and torque-tube drive --cushioned on coil springs and deep-oil shock absorbers.

No other duplicates the assurance of steering, brakes and rear axle so precisely geared and gaited for the nimble handling that's a safety "must" in modern cars. And certainly no other name plate promises the soaring sweep of power that wells from the big 322-cubic-inch V8 beneath every new Buick bonnet. Nor does any other automatic drive put power to its car's rear wheels with the swift, unruffled pace of Variable Pitch Dynaflow* -- and that goes double every time you "switch pitch" for whip-quick, safer passing. But why stop to count reasons--when results are what you're after? Wouldn't you rather really feel Buick's new "sense of direction'* on straightaway, curves and corners? Wouldn't you rather relax in supreme comfort while tooling this powerful performer over roads you always bated to travel? Well, sir, we cordially invite you to drop in on us and do just that. Make it this week, won't you? Sample the ride that has charms to win any old road--and get first-hand figures on prices that make Buick owning a more positive pleasure. *Sew Advanced Variable Pitch Dynaflow is the only Dynaflou) Byick builds today.
