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 - 812-15-NP - W.
