ment.

High on the list of engineering achievements is the design of the combined bumper and grille. Developed by Buick and offered on the Special for the first,time, this innovation was accomplished by placing the verticle bumper grille bars forward of the single-piece'bumper. Two bombshaped bumper guards, which also house the parking lamps, are mounted on the bumper. New also are sweeping fender and body contours which individualize the Special from a styling standpoint. The Buick ventiports, a Buick development of last year which has been widely copied, are relocated in the Special and arc ovals rather than circles. They are mounted in the hood instead of in the/fenders as on the Super and Roadmaster Scries. Many changes are incorporated in the interior of the body, most important of which is the 12 inches additional width at hip level in the rear seat. Interior appointments have been refined and the beauty enhanced by the selection of a grey stripe upholstery cloth which blends with matching colors used on the instrument panel, door trim and other painted panels. An all new body has been designed for the Special Scries with structural strength and rigidity increased by the ineorporaticn of latest improvements in body guilding. The all-welded steel body by Fisher features the unisteel turret construction, channel type reinforcements, “double walled’’ sections, and sturdy box section construction of the body frame in every location where such structural sectin is can be used. Added beauty, safety and convenience result from the use of a new type door lock and stationary handle. The lock is of the push button type while th" handle blends smoothly into the door panel at both ends. The rear compartment lid emblem serves as a combined lock, emblem and handhold with which to lift the deck lid. Only a turn of the key inserted in the hidden lock in the center of the emblem is needed to open the compart-

ment.

With the Special back in the line, Buick plans expanded production for the remainder of th--year. During the current month of August, schedules call for the greatest output in Buick’s 46yesr history. In preparation for the Special many millions of dollars have been invested in new tools, dies and machinery, and new assembly lines will be used in plants located in various parts of the country.
