Those folks who've always had a great big yen for a new Buick, but a big worry that Buick prices ran too high for their budgets. Kow we'll have to grant you that--on style find beauty and size and impressive appearance- a 1951 Buick looks like a pretty high price tag. And we'll have to grant, too, that the zooming power and the luxurious ride and the heavyweight steadiness you get in a> Buick would also indicate prices beyond the reach of most people. But honestly, could anything be farther from the truth when you note the sample pri $2303.42 for 1951 Buicks in the panel yonder# Isn't that beauty-with the big-power, fcig-mileage, eight-cylinder, valve-in-head Fireball Engine - and with prices starting below those of many of today's sixes--really within your budget picture? Won't you admit here and now that you com have Buick room and comfort, can have Buick Hde and handling, can have Buick style and size-for little, if any, more than you've been pqying for lesser cars? * That leaves the next step up to you--stopping in to see us. Come'in spon, look over the SPECIAL, SUPER OR ROADMASTER you've always wanted--and let that happy glow go surging all through as you sign up for your smart-buy Buick* '< *9M!¥ * s4»M"9 ifs M FIREBALL § BATTERY WHEN YOU PURCHASE THAT NEW ONE AT OUR STORE.
