THE BANNER-HERALD PHONE 75 Startling Advances in Power, Control and Economy. ami often Hob ell. There is no question that these Bulck cars will be hailed as a atantial advance in automotive ginverlng, but it will be note< the same time that the new fea tures are developments rather the innovations, evoluoltnury rath than revolutionary and conslste throughout with those Bulck fu elamrntnI principles that have ei dtiffd through twenty years Bulck manufacture. With fifty per cent more powoi claimed for its famous vn!ve-ln- head six cylinder engine, Its suc cessful external brakes extended to four wheels In both Sixes and Fours, a specially deslgneel car buretor that Is heralded as a won der, and literally dozens of other developments, major and minor, Bulck proves that its engineering titnff has been very much “on the Job." The thousands who are certnln to see these cars in the leading renters this week—and very soon in the show rooms of nil Bulck dealers—will first observe a change in body lines, undoubtedly in fluenced to a degree by recent re finements In foreign design. Thus a more modish apearance, even than the 1923 Bulck. has been ac complished by a departure. This applies to both the six nnd four cylinder models, of which there nrt fourteen body styles. Exterior features noted nt flrsl glance are the new head lamps, nickeled radiator on the sixes, wat er tight hood hinge, open hood sup port, newly designed crown fenders a more effective Wcnther-prool windshield strip, operating instru ments conforming In design to the headlamps, flush ventilator, new dust apron nnd a heavier and bet- .ter looking gasoline tank. It will next be noted that a two to four Inch longer wheel base on the six cylinder chassis has cre ated more room In both the front and rear comportments, thus af fording greater comfort to both driver nnd passenger and, coupled with an improved spring suspen sion, easier riding qualities also The finish Is exceptionally fine, even for Bulck, and the appoint ments unusually complete. But, despite tho notable advance? In Bulck appearance and roomi ness, it Is the chassis that reflects most the protracted nnd Intelli gent effort that the Bulck organiza tion has applied in developing It? car to this, tho highest attainment* of Its history. The six cylinder valve-in-head engine, which has probably brought more enduring fame to Bulck that any other unit of Its construction has been so re-designed thnt it ac tually yields 50 per cent more pow er nn«l a speed of <10 to 70 miles an hour. It has forced feed lubrica tion, removable heads, larger valves, heavier ernnk and shafts, greater piston displace ment nnd n new Marvel carbure tor that Includes a simple dash nd Justment for economy, regardless of weather or kind of gasoline em ployed. The extension to nil four wheel? of the highly successful Bulck ex ternal brakes Is a feature thnt, I* Is announced, has been In procesi of development for a period ol years and recently subjected t? more than 150,000 miles of hard and varied road tests. These broker enable the car to be brought to r standstill much more quickly nnd smoothly thus afforjtrg nn aided fnctor of safety InesMmnhlo In Its advantages. The brakes nre np crated by a light pressure on th? foot ptdn! nnd the mechanism l» both simple nnd ingenious. Thf torv organization gives its com* tc approval to this feature perfected In no sense experimental Another outstanding fnctor 1s the Improved lubrication of the en gine. There nre new cup-top push rods nnd the rocker arms, valve stems And springs, connecting rod bearings nre all automotically lub ricated. BASIC BUICK IDEAS RIGIDLY ADHERED TO The foregoing are merely **ih« high spots” In the 1924 Bulck. the minor Improvements nnd refine- tnenta of the line being. In the ag gregate, scarcely less Interesting and epochal. And through l( nl’ basic Bulck Ideas of construction have been rigidly adhered to, am plified marvellously, but In no In stance discarded. Of the fourteen body models oi the line, ten ore mounted on thf six cylinder chassis nnd four or the four cylinder chassis. Of the six-cylinder body mode!? there are two interesting depart ures from the 1973 line, a five- passenger Brougham. The forme* i« painted a durable black nnd tlu interior Is lined and upholster**/ in easily renovated material. Th< result is a car thnt can be subject ed to the roughest usages qf bust ness and at the same time qulckl} adaptable to social purposes. The five-passenger Brougham painted in n brilliant maroon, I: a very smart model of the so-calhV Sport tym. It has all the refine ments, Inside and out, that are as sociated with cars of this charac ter, besides many features dis tinctly Its own. The five-f sis sen ger touring car and the five-passenger Sedan, fin (shed In lu“trous black, are distin guished by ample room. The sev en-passeny' r touring nnd seven- passenger Sedan are finished in : beautiful s«-ft shade of blue. Th> sport roadster nnd sport touring are both maroon color. Of the four cylinder line, the fiv* passenger pairing nnd the two-pas senger Roads'er are finished in blade, the f •ur-pansenger Coupe in maroon, the five-passenger fte dan In blue.
