new BUICK MODELS
ARE LONGER, WIDER
Many Improvements Noted in
1893 Product Asserts
FIeck Motor Company

The 1888 Bucks are longer, wider,
better, more powerful and easier rid
ing than any of the famous models
which have preceded them, according
to announcement Monday by the
Fleck Motor company, local dealers,
in review of the Specifications Of the
new motor cars.
Modern, styling, smoothneSs, stabtl-
ity, riding comfort, reliability and
value are added to the improvements
in appearance and performance and
to the Fisher, no-draft, individually
controlled ventilation system as a
part of this fine transportation unit,
the announcement said.
Additional length and width and
lowered height harmonic with the
new and sweeping wind-stream lines
which are ultra-modern but not ex-
IRENE.
More than four inches have been
added to the length of the smaller
models, bringing them to 1l9 inches;
the next largest series has been in
creased from 118 to 127-inch Wheel
base, the third of 80 series has been
heightened from 126 to 100 inches and
the largest models now are 1873 instead
Of 1874 inches long. Treads have been
widened from 57ls to SO inches In
front and from SO to 60ls inches at
the rear.
From the front the new Buick pre-
sents radically new appearance. The
V-shape radiator is protected by a
fine-mesh dull chromium finished
grill. Tenders are low and broad and
mounted with radiator and headlamps
so that frame distortion will not be
transmitted to those units. Radiator
shells are finished in duco and hoods
are long, emphasized by a tapering
chromium plated hood hinge.
The bodies are az inches lower
than formerly without sacrificing
headroom. The backward slope Of
the windshield harmonizes with the
curved roofline that arches over the
bodies and descends, in two graceful
reverse curves, into the windstrean
rear contour.

been built into the cars, not merely
added here and there, and unusua
attention has been given to the east
