BUICK
G10-28-NF
For Comfort’s Sake
The Better Buick offers every
ordinary motoring comfort, and
many that are exclusively Buick:
Easier starting—a new, high-speed
starting motor does it. Smooth run
ning from the go—Automatic Heat
Control is an exclusive Buick feature.
Easier steering—Buick’s 5-control*
surface steering gear is the most ex
pensive and most efficient type today.
For Safety’s Sake
Buick surrounds you with every
ordinary protection, and then adds
Buick protection: Buick depend
ability, which takes you and brings
you back, on time, all the time.
Buick mechanical 4-wheel brakes,
with no liquid in them to expand,
contract or leak away. And Buick
Controllable Beam Headlights, with
steering wheel control, which make
night driving a pleasure.
For Economy’s Sake
No other car has the “Sealed Chassis”
and the “Triple Sealed Engine.” The
“Sealed Chassis” lowers operating
costs by enclosing every operating
| part inside a dirt-proof, oil-tight
housing, while “Triple Seals” close
every engine point of entry to dirt
and the wear dirt causes.
For Value’s Sake
i At present prices, Buick with all of
! its added comfort, safety, and
economy, is easily the greatest
automobile value in the world.
