  • THE MOTORCAR OFFERED

On offer is a wonderful example of the Series 50 (248ci, 4,066cc) Buick Super Eight. This car left the Flint Michigan factory in 1940, Buick's best ever production year, but unfortunately, there is scant information to be found about the larger history of this piece of American history. Although, given the wonderful condition, the car was presumably restored not to many years ago.

Today, the convertible is finished in a deep maroon paint over a matching red vinyl interior. Both show in very good order as the vehicle must have been used very sparingly since its refurbishment. Its interior is a wonder of Art-Deco design and is a delight to behold in person.

Cruising in comfort with 4-passengers is as easy as turning the key thanks to the Super's powerful 8-cylinder motor and heavily padded seating, and its dashing exterior design is sure to make this a big hit at any weekend car show.
