Tu rn the key/ and your Buick is Double-Locke(

No lock could be safer! One turn of the key kai both ignition and steering wheel. But merely runfl| off the ignition does not lo- k the wheel. You nuysa off the engine and coast, if you like, and still b« your car under perfect control. And no lock could be more convenient! It is nated and located within easy reach, where a steering column meets the dash. The Buick double-lock is an exclusive Buick iris —one of many important refinements which cbi# tcrize Buick for 1928.
