Vehicle Description
A classic Buick is about buying style and power. And with this 1965
Buick Special Convertible, you get all of that great vintage
attitude and an affordable price.
While the Special shared its A-body platform with cars like the
Chevrolet Chevelle, the more expensive Buicks seemed to instantly
showcase its premium attitude with a few more curves in its sheet
metal. You see it in the profile with the artful wheel wells, and
the trim line that starts at the front fender and runs like an
unbroken line until tapers off into the rear end-cap. Plus, this
premium feeling is heightened by the factory-correct Champagne Mist
paint that has an upper class name and a golden hue. As you look at
the details, there's plenty of evidence this has led a
well-respected life. You see it how nicely many of the signature
pieces fit like the long hood, curved deck lid, and those big
chrome bumpers. Even the details are right, like the portholes in
the fender trim and the iconic Rallye wheels.
A classic convertible needs an interior this distinctive. The
tri-tone earth-tones on both rows of seats are sure to catch some
eyes. Like any good '60s American car, there's plenty of room for
family and friends. So there will always be someone to share this
unique interior. More than just the seats, the door panels,
carpeting, and dash all coordinate nicely, and they all have the
vintage look that's part of this convertible's overall
period-correct attitude. During this era of cruisers, the driver
was king. That's why the instruments take up nearly the whole dash.
They include everything from the ultra-wide speedometer, to the
provisions for air conditioning. And that power convertible switch
means it's easy to share all of this with the world.
Under the hood is Buick's 300 cubic-inch V8. This is the correct
motor for this 400-series Special, and it makes a nice tone out of
the dual exhaust. It looks clean and runs smooth, which is
everything you want in a Buick. Combine this with power steering,
power brakes, and an automatic transmission, and this Super is a
true all-day cruiser.
This is an affordable classic that you get to revel in its vintage
style and even its rarity (only 3,365 V8 Special drop tops were
made in '65.) So don't let something this unique and affordable
slip away. Call now!
