A GENERAL MOTORS VALUI
No ifs, ands or buts about it.
When you give the gun to .a 1955 Buick with Dynaflow Drive*,
you move.
s In the instant you push down the pedal, you get the action you’ve
called for—immediate getaway from a standing start, or immediate
safety-surge out of a tight spot on the highway.
It’s not magic, this thrilling and pulse-quickening response—though
it feels like the closest thing to it. #
It’s a principle of the modern airplane, brought for the first time to
an automotive transmission. *
. Twenty ’’variable pitch propellers” inside the Dynaflow unit itself
can change their angle—like the propeller of the airliner can change
its pitch from take-off position to cruising position.
And what this brings to you—at the wheel of a ’55 Buick—is the
nearest thing to flight on wheels. Far better gas mileage in your
normal driving and cruising. Spectacular response when you want it
for quick getaway or emergency acceleration.
But all this, mind you, with the absolute smoothness that is constant
in Dynaflow Drive.
Surely, a demonstration of Variable Pitch Dynaflow is a Buick
’’must” this year. We’ll be'happy to do the honors—and show you,
in the doing, what a whale of a buy you make here. Drop in this
week, won’t you?
