No fair pecking at the sample
prices over on the right till you
put yourself to this test:
Look ut the handsome honey pictured
here or recall the thousands like it
that you've been seeing on the
highways and ask yourself what you
think one would cost.
Bear in mind, this is nn cight-and a
very special eight with the eager
and ever-lively power of a high
compression al c-in-hcad engine
that's a Fireball to boot.
Take stock of its generous expanses
of safety plate glass that mean evtra
visihility-and the sofa-wide comfort
of its deep-cushioned seats.
Take our word for it or check for
yourself it rides like a dream with
coil springs on all four wheels instead
of two with big soft low-pressure
tires on Ruick's wide rims and with
feather-light handling for all its road
hugging heft.
Remember that such things as air
cleaners, oil filters, dual horns, wind
shield wipers, sun visors and map
lights, automatic dome lighting, and a '
built-in ventilation system all come
as part and parcel of every Buick
at no extra cost and likewise that
WBMrma roun nicM kahc
Buick, and Buick alone, offers
Dynaflow Drive.
Then look at the prices and see how
they jibe with your idea of what such
a car should cost. If you've done any
shopping, you'll quickly find out that
you can own a Rnick at prices that
start below what you'd pay for some
sixes.
Why not get the exact figures for the
body type in the Series that exactly
fits your taste and budget starting
now, with a visit to your Buick dealer.
