Point an Oldsmobile toward the horizon and let
her go. That's Rocket power you feel pushing you
deeper into your seat. And every Olds has it in
good measure. How good? Up to 345 hp with
the Starfire V8.
Now, take Olcls over back roads. Yes, those
are bumps you see but don't feel. Oldsmobile's
balanced coil spring suspension takes care of that.
Pilot an Oldsmobile into a crowded city can-
yon. Notice how smooth and relaxing downtown

famous Hydra -Matic Drive, Roto -Matic Power

at extra cost on some models) take on the effort,
and leave you the fun.
Sooner or later, you'll get that Oldsmobile
feeling. And when you do, your Olds dealer is
the man to see. He has 21 variations on the
Oldsmobile action and value theme. Buying any
one makes very good sense.
