Buick
Power
is proved on the 2 4 Hour Hill
Buick knows that the famous Buick
Valve-in-Head Engine produces more
power for its size than any other auto­
mobile engine on earth.
Buick has proved this fact decisively at
the great Proving Ground of General
Motors, on the PP24-Hour Hill”—a me­
chanical device which faithfully duplicates
the pull of any hill for any number of
miles.
Test, not guess, is the basis for Buick
design. Buick success is founded on this
constant search for the new and better
th in g —on this accurate, beforehand
knowledge of results.
