The '37-'38 Buicks have pleasing unified design of something done from the ground up without compromise, and this styling was not limited to the exterior. The interior received a wonderfully stylish dashboard frequently equipped with a striking speaker grille in the center. The banjo steering wheel with horn ring is another small masterpiece.
THE CAR OFFERED
Production of the 2-door Convertible Coupe as presented here today was one of the more limited in the sequence, a mere 787 being delivered in this form against more than 30,000 Series 60s and a year that saw the brand supply more than 227,000 cars.
As a young man George Holman's fascination with cars was already well ingrained in his spirit and the first car that he ever bought was at the age of 15 was one of these 66C Buicks. In recent years George fondly recalled that nostalgically and decided to acquire a '37 66C to relive his early collecting days. After an exhaustive and typically careful search he sourced the car that we present today in Washington State in 2015.
In order to live up to Mr. Holman's high standards, the Buick has been carefully gone through on the mechanical side and made to run in a characteristically reliable form. Its cosmetics are extremely well presented with good quality paintwork, and only a modicum of age to the interior both of which are assumed to be older refurbishments.
Handsome in their lines and eminently usable for events, this well-prepared Buick Century is ready to be used, toured or shown by its next owner.
