Increased Driving Comfort
Provided in Buick “Fours”
In adjusting the position of the driving seat, in
lowering the steering column 'and in bringing the
shift lever and emergency brake within the easiest
possible reach of the driver’s hand, Buick has pro
vided additional comfort and satisfaction in the new
four-cylinder models. Ease of handling is also an
outstanding feature of the new Buick “four”. In
. heavy traffic the abundant power of the famous
valve-in-head engine and the quickness with which
the car responds to every control enable it to glide in
and out of traffic with the utmost facility, while Buick
four-wheel brakes assure perfect braking and safety
under all conditions. c i
