Vehicle Description
This 1937 Buick Series 40 Restomod was the product of a long-term
labor of love. It includes an ultra-smooth custom style,
fuel-injected V8, overdrive transmission, upgraded suspension, a
custom leather interior, and more. So you can plan out every little
detail of a comprehensive restomod build, or you can skip right to
the fun of driving with this one.
The appeal of this one is far more than just the high-gloss
cream-colored paint that highlights all the curves of the body. We
know people are really going to take some extra time going over the
details of this one. After all, this is a very classic Buick design
with some very modern touches. It starts with a body that has
traded in most of its chrome for a very sleek appearance. Up front
that means a full custom setup that takes away the heavy look of
the bumper, and instead, the grille and fenders really get to
become quite elegantly distinct. In fact, the lights were even
custom added to the fenders using '37 Ford housings. The result is
a Pierce-Arrow kind of style. The running boards were eliminated so
that you can fully appreciate the curves of the fenders. They also
deleted the trim, shaved the door handles, and hid the hinges so
that the side looks extra smooth. But the largest pieces of custom
work along the sides was how it went from a four-door sedan to a
two-door convertible. In the rear, there's no trace left of the
bumper so nothing gets in the way of viewing the custom LED
taillights. The full custom was finished in creamy Ivy Perl that
has a terrific metallic radiance for all the custom curves. And
while this is a very sleek and modern-style setup, no classic
American is complete without a little brightwork. And now that it's
only on the 16-inch wheels and big dual exhaust tips.
This has the burgundy top and full windows to seal up the full
build, but really, this car was meant to be open to the world. So
you'll love taking the top off and showing off the full custom
interior. The color of the leather interior is called Dusty Rose,
and it brings a unique elegance that's ideal for a car this
distinct. Because luxury is a priority, you have great upgrades
like high-back front bucket seats that power adjust. There are also
power windows, provisions for air conditioning (likely needs a
recharge), and a full AM/FM/CD stereo system with upgraded speakers
and power subwoofers. It's also built with the driver in mind with
the custom steering wheel in an Ididt tilt steering column and the
glass dash panel that hides the digital gauges when the car is
off.
The engine bay continues this car's awesome custom style. The
bright inner walls, polished valve covers, color-matched engine
cover, and well-tucked wires make for an award-worthy presentation.
More than just look terrific, the powerhouse is a fuel-injected LT1
V8. So this custom has a hardy and powerful heart. The build spent
some time in storage, but the consignor also made a recent $1,700
investment at the local hot rod specialists to make sure this
custom was ready to hit the road. In fact, this really has the
smooth kind of feeling that makes you feel a bit like you're
driving a modern Buick. That's thanks to an updated suspension,
power steering, power brakes, front discs, and an easy cruising
four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive.
There's so much to go over with this build that we even have a full
spec sheet, build receipts, maintenance records, and restoration
photos. Rarities like this are often the kind of car that you
either need to act now or possibly regret it tomorrow. Don't miss
out, call today!
