That suggests* immediately that here is the --instrument of great speed--but the fact is it wasn't speed we were after when we built it. We were shooting for more efficient use of the fuel you burn -- more economy, more jpower, more pick-up--yes, even easier car Handling through less frequent need for ihifting. Abo ve all, we were out to cut through s lot "|f the complications that feature current ^Automobile design, and give you a simpler, Iturdier, less involved mechanism. At 20 miles an hour this Buick 4»es only 1,4% of its available power--at 30 only 9.7% --at 50, less than one-sixth, and so on. The balance is available for acceleration, for pull on the hills, for overcoming sand, mud, gravel or other tough going. ' You can see for yourself thow this tremen- ^ dous reserve, instantly amiable, eliminates much of your need for shifting to lower gears, hence makes unnecessary any involved device for this purpose. / It does even more--for with all this power, we can use a more economical gear ratio in our standard top speed. And that means that all the time you travel in high--from 15 miles an hour on up--you ; §re^ getting the equivalent of overdrive or lourth-speed economy without m^chflnical complicatiotk. In consequence: miles per gallon go up as ihuch as 10% to 15%. This husky 165-horsepower giant actually gives more gasoline economy than our M7* Iporsepower engine of a year ago. At 50 it consumes no more fuel than the fame-sized engine of conventional design brinks up «t 30. She whys and wherefores of such performance are best understood when you have an #ngine to look at and someone to answer j|our questions about it Here we can say that two things account for $11 this good -- FIREBALL* design that gets •nore power out of every gallon of gasoline and Compound Carburetion that gives your ~~~#ngine two distinct ranges of power. J£ach of these is important enough to Call vitor personal investigation. But get off on the right start early sac your ** ' ' dealer nom about the year's moat important engineering advance. Consider, for example, just one Quality of this great power plant-- ;|hfe tremendous reserve of power it puts at your command. = SITTER AUTOMOMUS ARC SUM •mac WHJ. sutio MP* . • jicttdimf m tit EmtpchpmMi* Bn i s taptr mttttr xvkkk iravtu mn < una txfUotioni like tkt tktek tvavtt tf * grtmt -plpm jectilt it cmlltd a "FIUIAU," BUICK PRICES BEGIN AT '935 ^br HM Busings Covpt \vtr*d Flint, Mich.
