HARST time we saw the blueprints
for this Buick thirty-niner we
knew we had something pretty special
for folks who like action in their
travels.
It had eight eager cylinders in a mighty
Dynaflash engine — and they could
make a scared jack rabbit eat dust
whenever the word was given!
It had a ride we promptly dubbed
"full float" — that’s how soft its stout
coiled springs are in action.
It had a view, from windows and
windshields as much as 412 square
inches bigger—and it had style that has
already altered the pattern on many
another car-stylist’s drawing board.

step further. We decided a car so
