T used to be the custom for
a man who wanted to buy a car to take a
mechanic w ith him.
Today, General M otors itself employs
skilled automotive engineers to make it
easy for you to select your new car. These
men are working for you at its Proving
Ground—the n68-acre outdoor laboratory
in Michigan where every kind of car is
tested.
Before any General Motors car goes in
to production, a fleet of advance models is
co n stru cted and sent to th e P roving
Ground. There these advance cars must
meet every test—tests far harder than you
would make. Sometimes they are rebuilt,
redesigned, retested many times until they
are pronounced ri^ht, and ready to be put
into production.
The tests involve speed, power, endur
ance, braking, riding comfort, handling
ease; fuel and oil economy; body strength
and safety — every phase o f car construc
tion and performance.
Buying a car is easy today—because
these men at the Proving Ground are work
ing for you to assure you of value when
you select a General M otors car.
