The 54 BUCK'S got It
The Big Change you’ve been hoping for!
The instant you see these 1954 Buicks, you’ll know that some
thing sensational has happened in automobile styling.
Here is vastly more than the usual model changeover. Here
is vastly more than could be done just by warming over what
Buick had before. Here is something accomplished by going
far beyond artful face-lifting.
Here is that rarity of rarities—a completely new line of
automobiles. ' ,
/ But Buick didn’t stop with the bolder, fresher, swifter-lined
beauty you sec in raised and lengthened fender sweep—in the
huge and back-swept expanse of windshield—in the lowered roof
line—in the host of extra glamor features of exterior modernity.
They upped all horsepowers to the highest in Buick history.
They engineered a new V8 for the low-priced SPECIAL,
bo that now the entire Buick line has Buick’s famous V8 engine
— and in the process came up with new Power-Head Pistons
that boost gasoline mileage in every engine.
They brought to market a sparkling newcomer with a
famous name, the Buick CENTURY—a car with phenomenal
horsepower for its weight and price—a car with more pure
thrill per dollar than any Buick ever built.
And they did all this without change of the price structure
which, for years, has made Buick the most popular car at its
price in the world.
We invite you to come in and inspect these great beauties,
these great performers, these great buys. Then you’ll see why
previewers are already saying, "Buick’s the beautiful buy!’’
