Phone 1385 TOTISJS I -i -T i "; ii V - f - i , : '-' OIL-HUSHED to sigh of silence under Butck'i style-tapered bon net, a great-powered valve-in-head engine waits to unleash torrent of action at your command. There's thrill In It and triumph over time and distance. But most important there's eyewink obedience. Teamed up with this ablest of driving forces is the newest and most highly perfected system of hydraulic- brakes. The quickest of stops Is velvet smooth under their self-energizing action. On the wettest of streets there will be no slewing, no swerves, for they are auto matically self-equalizing. Their action has the smoothness of a -closing hand, increasing its grasp stead ily to the maximum. Their steel-ten-doned grip would halt a heavy truck, but it takes only a touch of a daintily shod toe to put them into action. We call them "tiptoe hydraulics," and how apt the name Is you'll never know until you drive a Buick and sample for yourself their softness and their velvet command. The first few times you sit behind a Buick wheel, you may find yourself traveling faster than you think. No car is more buoyantly smooth in its power flow, more deceptively effortless in its swift flight But no car is more surely under con trol at all times quicker, smoother, easier in its stopping. If you must drive with an eye on the passing minutes, do so In a Buick which matches engine eagerness with tiptoe braking sure ness, offsets high spot go-ability with dependable slop-ability. . . to 12506 an ths Dellrtrsd prtcsa 51049 01 th Bew Bulcka In Med ford, subject to chana without nottos, Standard and special aoosnsorlea groups on alt modsla at extra cost.
