Like in "torque multiplication" the twisting force a transmission delivers to the drive shaft. (The greater the torque multiplication, the greater the performance). But what do you find? You find that ami '56 Bulck with advanced new Variable Pitch Dynaflow delivers a higher torque ratio than ang standard-production car in America. And you find that this high-torque performance is one reason for Buick's best-seller standing. For Buick is now more strongly positioned in the Top 3 of the nation's biggest-selling automobiles. That' s news and there's plenty more where that came from. For the '56 Buick is jam-packed with new engineering and styling advances to make it the best Buick yet, by far. That new Dynaflow, for example, brings you the world's only switch-pitch performance in cars plus a new part-throttle getaway response that's swifter, surer, and a gas-saver to boot. The new V8 engine is 322-cubic-inches big, and packed with the highest horsepowers, the high est compressions in all Buick annals. There's a Joyous new ride, too a new steering magic a new "sense of direction" in your every handling maneuver. Thing to do Is come see for yourself. That way you can also look at the prices that have helped move Buick to a new sales success outselling all other cars In America except two of the well known smaller ones. Will you do that, this week? New Advanced VariabU Pitch Dynafloia is th oidy Dynaflow Buick builds today. It is standard on Roadmaster, Super and Century-optional at modest extra cost on th Special.
