LOCATED EAST OF LUCKNOW ON HiGHWAY 86 McPherson's Garage Disp ays 1964 Buick • The new Buicks now on display at McPherson's Garage in Teeswater emphasizes the wider, lower look with distinctive grille treatment for each series. The Wildcat Sport Coupe shown here features a new broad, die-cast molding which extends from the wheel opening to the rear bumper. Ventiports are now stacked, three high, just ahead of the front door. Three new engines have been added to the Buick line- up for 1964 to include extra economy in one series and flashier performance in another. For 1964, Buick takes a gia.nt step forward in the evolution of torque converter -type transmission with the Super Turbine "300," a two -speed unit and the Super Turbine "400" which is a three -speed unit designed to handle the greater power of the 401 and 425 cubic inch engine and the additional vehicle weight of the luxury series cars. NEW BRICKS SHOWN AT TEESWATER TEDSWA'1'.,R, Ont.—McPher- son Motors introduced its 1964 Buicks —a lineup of 26 models that features two new super turbine transmissions providing up to 43 percent more wheel thrust, along with. three new engines and a host of styling changes that include an all-new roomier Special series built for the first time in Canada. Doug McPherson, proprietor of McPherson Motors, well known throughout the area be- cause of his TV, radio and news- paper use of the slogan "See. Mac for a Hack"—proudly show- ed off one of the new Buick models for us. Here are some of the high- lights he pointed out: Two new Super Turbine trans- missions that improve perform- ance and gasoline mileage. Both transmissions are lighter in weight and .have fewer working parts. A new V-6 engine with greater cubic inch displacement that provides ,better performance for the larger Specials in which it is standard equipment. A compact new Iightweight aluminum V-8 engine with a cast-iron block and 300 -cubic - inch displacement that is the lightest weight V-8 on the market. A high -performance engine with two four -barrel carbure- tors, 10.25 to 1 compression ratio And 425 -cubic -inch displacement. An entirely .new Special line using a frame for thefirst time, with three inohes more wheel- base and 1111/2 inches additional length, A completely restyled lineup of LeSabre, Wildcat and Electra 225 models. These, Mac showed us out of his full colour Buick brochure, because Mac's place just isn't big enough to hold all the Buick models at one time. "Buick's 26 new models come in six series," Mac told us, "the Special, Skylark, LeSabre, Wild- cat, Electra 225, and Riviera," The Riviera sports coupe, in- troduced last year as a limited - production model, maintains its exclusive exterior styling. How- ever, inside there are numerous interior refinements that add to its distinction. Buick's new Super Turbine transmissions, the Super Turbine 400 and the Super Turbine 300, are among the most important single development in the long history of the torque -converter transmission which Buick pion- eered in 1948. The Super Turbine 400 is standard on Riviera and Electra models and optional on the Wildcat and LeSabre series, The Super Turbine 300 will be avail- able as optional equipment on ail models in the 'Special series, and also on alt LcSahre models Wherever you drive — our service goes with you When your car is Hartford - insured through us you can always depend on fast, friendly service through any one lir 260 claim offices coast to coast.

CONRON, CLIA Insurance Agency Dial 357-2636, Winghtm 000 except the Estate Wagon, In addition to an improvement in performance and economy, coupled with smoothness of 'op- eration, the new transmissions are great weight savers due to extensive use of aluminum. Basically, the Super Turbine 400 is a three -element type tor- que," Mac explained, thinking we looked a little confused. "The Super Turbine 300 has two forward speed ratios. In ad- dition it has Buick's famed 'Switch the Pitch' feature which increases torque multiplication for added performance in pass- ing." Mac looked at us as though that should make everything clear, "The new ST 300 transmission for the Special backs up new en- gines. The V-6 is up from 198 - cubic -inch displacement to 225, with new features designed for better performance, economy and reliability. "The 300 -cubic -inch aluminum V-8 engine combines the best features of last year's engine into the new powerplant. This engine is standard on the Le - Sabre and improves gasoline ,mileage as much as 16 percent." Mac knew he had struck home. We've been trying for years to save on gas, "By using a east -iron block, Buick's engineers were able to increase the ,aluminurn V-8 en- gine's displacement to 300 cubic inches without increasing block size," said Mac. "And through the use of aluminum cylinder heads, water -pump covers, in- take manifold and many other parts, the advantage of light weight was retained. Optional ,on the Special and LeSabre series is the same V-8 engine with a four - barrel carburetor. For the first time, dual exhausts are avail- able as an option on all Special V-8 models, except Estate Wa- gons." Standard on all Estate Wa- gons, Wildcat and Electra 225 models is the 40i -cubic -inch V-8 with four -barrel carburetor and 10.25 to 1 compression ratio. The 425 -cubic -inch engine is standard on the Riviera. The 425 - cubic - inch engine, with either one or two four - barrel carburetors, is available as an option an Wildcat and Electra 225 models. This some engine, with two four -barrel car- buretors, is optional on the Riv- iera, A high -output camshaft is combined with the multiple car- buretors. Some of the more salient sty- ling features of the new models, as Mac explained, are: Special series — longer, wider, roomier. Front bumper com- pletely wraps around. Curved glass in the side windows inte- grates the lower body with the upper, Frame construction and added size improves ride and roadability. Added height gives easier access, more comfort, Skylark four -door sedan add- ed to lineup of convertible and two -door coupe. Frameless glass windows like the Riviera in the Skylark coupe -- ventiports be- come integral part of side .mold- ing. New die-cast grille—special vinyl roof cover design, LeSabre wider, lower front appearance, New wrap-around bumper, New die -east grille. Headlamps moved outward.

Nl'w four -door sedan added to present line-up of two- door coupe, four -door hardtop and t.nnvertihte, Wider choice of interior trims, Smart new grille en hit n('1'$ Kick Electra 225 --- distinctive grille treatment gives (lean new front appearance. Cornering light re- styled. New ventiports mounted flat against the fender. Vertical tail lights are integral parts of the rear fenders, 'Fender skirts enclosing the rear wheels enupi- ed with fu11 length moulding give the Ek'etrn a longer, lower appearance. In addition to exterior styling. improvements have been matte in the 1964 line in a number of handling and mifety features. Aluminum four-wheel brakes are continued LILT all regular models, and brake drums on Special series cars are finned to increase cooling capacity. Specials and Skylarks have new front and rear suspension systems, along with new rear axles. As Mac ran his hand lovingly over the shiny 1964 Buick an dis- play, he said, "Isn't that some hack?" Leaving a grave, at which he had just placed some flowers a man noticed an old Chinese gentleman placing a bowl of rice on a nearby grave. He asked, cynically: "When is your friend going to come up to eat the rice?" "Same time your friend comes up to smell the flowers." G.A.. Williams, OD OPTOMETRIST 9 PATRICK STREET W.
