Look at the F
DI you're missing!
SURE, we know a car is "nc
cesairy" these dny. A modern
family "couldn't get along without
one." Or so you tell yourself.
Come, come, sir! We know, and
so do you, the real reason you got
the new-car fever and the kind of
car you are hankering for.
ou want a car with some fun in
it, don't you?
A car you'll get a big hang out of
every time you see it parked in
front of your house every time
you slip into its front seat every
sweet and easy mile you travel
in it.
Well, come see what this beauty
docs for you.
bonnet snaps into purring life at
your toe-touch.
And then note
How smoothly you slip away from
tho curh especially when Dyna
flow is hmulling the power trans
mission. How firm and steady the whole car
feels. I low it holds on curves, free
of "hccl-ovcr" and sway. How
each coil-sprung wheel quicksteps
over humps and rough spots that
mean jounce and jiggle on most
curs how buoyantly road-free a
Ktiick is.
JRm? You bet it's fun too much
fun to miss.
And there's no reason to mist it,
really, for this strapping traveler
is priced under many sixes. Starts
at figures just an easy step above
the so-called Ixwcst Price cars.
What's keeping you from trying
one, when the nearest Buick dealer
is ready to demonstrate without
obligation any time you want to
cull on him.
