OME car makers say springs make the ride—and so we give ‘every Buick four of the soft, gentle coil springs practically all cars use on front wheels only. Some say the drive is important— how power is transmitted to the rear wheels. . We agree—and use a torque-tube drive, that takes up all the thrust, freeing rear springs of driving pulsation. ome stress tires—so you'll find low-pressure Casings on every Buick, mounted ‘on our own kind of Safety-Ride rims.

Then there are frames—and car weight — and engine mountings, which on Buick are a very special kind used nowhere else. They're all important — yet the plain truth is no one of these things—or two or three—gives a ride-you can truly call ‘‘unruffled.” We feel it takes all of them — springs, tires, shock absorbers, drive, engine mountings — carefully and precisely brought into balance with each other. Bate can see why we think so in any Buick— SPECIAL, SUPER or ROADMASTER. You can feel it on cobblestones and car tracks, washbgardy gravel and weather-pocked macadam, country lane and city. street. You even feel it on boulevards, which grow still smoother when you travel them in a Buick—especially when it has Dynaflow Drive? So we would like you to try a ride that is truly “unruffled.” Free of harshness— undisturbed by jounce and jitter— level — steady-going — smooth.
