So let'sv see how A Buick SPECIAL fits into the picture. Take first cost. I£»you put the price tag; of this Buick against price tags of cars that have always been tagged as belonging in "the low-priced field"--you'll find that, in actual dollars, a Buick's surprisingly close to these cars of lesser size and horsepower. ~ ^ But that's just the beginnings .What you're getting here is.Buick quality -- this SPECIAL comes down the same assembly line as SUPERS aad ROADMASTERS. Its heft tells you it has extra sturdioecs in frame and structure. Its Fireball Engine delivers extra power. It is an eight, a valve-in-head, with high compression, and the miles you can get from a gaHon of gas make it a thrifty performer. Ifou get Buick's Million Dollar Ride, which protects you--and the car--from jars and jolts. Even the tires are bigger -- whi£h, any tire man will tell you, lengthens their wear. And if you pay a bit extra for Dynaflow Drive* you're easing the strain on the engine, the rear end, the tires--and eliminating clutch repair bills. So when we talk about "mileage fotj your money" we're talking about the miles you'll get from your car--includ« Ing the unused miles that are what have to sell when you trade it in. Maybe that's why Buick's doing so well in the present market. Why not come in and see what a great car this is for you? Sfuipment. aceamorim, trim and models are subject to change witkouf. llitice.
