Even though you may be familiar with earlier Versions of Dynaflow Drive either from personal experience or from hearsay you owe it to yourself to press the pedal of a 1955 Buick with Variable Pitch Dynaflow. Just as simple as ever to operate easier, in fact, with the new positioning of the lever. Just as smooth as ever, with nary a lag, halt or hesitation throughout the speed range. -But brother ! hang on to your hat when you call fbr action! - - Because that's what you get, instantly. Because twenty power blades inside the very heart of this wondrous automatic transmis sion switch their pitch for getaway perform-; ance much like the airplane's propeller is angled for take-off. . It's as simple as that but far more thrilling : than words can tell. And it's a big boon to your gasoline money, too. For, just as the plane's propeller changes , pitch aloft for greater fuel efficiency in cruis J ing, so the.
