Buick defined the term "conservative luxury," and this 1941 Model 91 Limited Sedan is the epitome of their philosophy. Only 1,223 Series 91 Limited Touring Sedans were built in 1941, and this example underwent a comprehensive, body-off restoration using rare NOS parts wherever possible. Presented in a striking shade of dark blue, the brightwork dances off the finish, including the “At Speed” chrome accents upon the fender skirts. Inside, passengers will revel in two-tone broadcloth upholstery with fantastic details such as engine-turned aluminum and exquisite wood trim. It even has a Sonomatic pushbutton radio and rear windshield blinds.
The Fireball 8 engine is exceptionally well detailed and fitted with dome-shaped pistons and twin downdraft carburetors, both of which conspire to help the 320 CI inline 8-cylinder mill produce 165 HP. A 3-speed sliding-gear transmission and 4-wheel hydraulic drum brakes make driving the imposing car more enjoyable. Complete with bumper guards, whitewall tires, chrome hubcaps and chrome trim rings, this Buick is dressed to impress, making a statement through understated elegance.
