Yet even the real rough ones turn out a lot smoother when you're in a 1955 Buick. And that's not just our say-so. New owners of these new beauties keep telling us that. So you may wonder how come? What's dif ferent about the Buick ride that makes it such a marvel? The answer is-plcnty. , Most cars have coil springs on front wheels only. Buick has them all around and this year they're newly calibrated for even deeper smothering of jounce and jar. So , here your ride is balanced, buoyant, level, serenely smooth. Most cars drive through the rear springs. Buick drives through a torqua-tube that takes up all driving thrust, wipes out rear-wheel wiggle and wag, steadies your going to a sure and solid track. And no other car in all America has these great comfort extras plus the backbone of a massive X-braced frame plus both direct and lever-type shock absorbers to snub after- Local Delivered Price ef the 1 955 Bulck SPECIAL ( "2,656.00 2Door, 6-Patngir Sedan, I ' Modal 4S (I luilroKd) ' OntlMitl wiuipfnvnt, occ.iioilai, llalv nod iocol la.,.
