Vehicle Description
Featured on MotorTrend TV's show "Bitchin' Rides," this custom 1959
Buick Invicta was built by Kindig-it Designs and is known as "Blue
Suede Shoes." This beautiful build took 18 months, 13,000
man-hours, and $715,000 to come to life. The car sits on an Art
Morrison chassis with coilover shocks, tubular independent front
suspension and a 4-link rear suspension, and is powered by a
supercharged 6.2-liter LSA V8 engine with custom finishings to
match the curvatures of the hood as well as to resemble an original
Buick Nailhead. The V8 is backed by a GM Performance 4L80E
automatic transmission. This custom Buick rides on one-off EVOD
wheels with wide whites built into them and features power-assist
Wilwood brakes for stopping power. The body and trim customizations
are complete with a cast-molded custom grille, tucked bumpers that
pull into the body and door handles built into the side trim. The
interior is fully custom and features blue suede and blue leather,
with hand-cut lacing and tooled leather by JS Interiors in Salt
Lake City. Additional features include custom Dakota Digital
gauges, full Kicker IQ components and subwoofers, as well as power
steering, power windows, locks and trunk. "Blue Suede Shoes" is
known all around the nation with multiple SEMA Show appearances and
has won numerous awards, including Top 5 Hot August Nights, Top 12
Finalist Goodguys Custom of the Year, Multiple Goodguys Builders
Choice Awards, Best in Show Kool Deadwood Nights, Best in Show
Counts Car Show, Top 5 Dickinson Car Show, and many other Best in
Show or Best in Class accolades. There wasn't a show entered that
an award wasn't received. This Buick is not only a head-turner at
every show but also is quite roadworthy as well, with two
3,000-plus-mile road tours under its belt. **SOLD ON BONDED TITLE**
