GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this head-turning 1953 Buick
Special. This gorgeous vehicle comes in a clean Matador Red paint
job complimented by a custom two-tone interior. Powering the
Special is the legendary 263ci Straight 8-cylinder motor mated to a
smooth-shifting 2-speed Dynaflow transmission. This powerplant is
believed to be the original.
The Special comes to us from a private collection and member of the
"Buick Club of America". As such it has always been properly
maintained and stored accordingly. So, if you're in the market for
a clean classic machine, this Buick is sure to not disappoint.
Please call or email us today for more information.
Halfway into the 1949 model year, the Specials received all-new
bodywork, the first fully postwar design for the series. New was
also the 40D-series, a better-equipped version called the Special
DeLuxe. The engine remained the 248 cu in (4.1 L) which had been
used since 1937, but in 1951 this was replaced by the larger
"Fireball" straight-eight. A two-door hardtop coupe was also new
for 1951. The 1954 Specials had an all-new body and chassis, much
wider and lower, and were now equipped with the all-new, more
powerful "Nailhead" V8 engines. 1949-1957 Buick Specials had three
VentiPorts while more senior Buicks. r. Earlier versions had a
"Sweepspear" inspired character line alongside the body, while
later versions had the "Sweepspear" molding attached to the side of
all models.
Price does not include applicable tax, title, license, processing,
and/or $199 documentation fees.
