1941 Buick Special 36,886 Original Miles From New! This is an outstanding example of a 1941 Buick Special. The car is black with tan interior and has only traveled 36,886 miles over the last 71 years. This car is a 100% totally unrestored original car. This Buick was built in Linden, NJ in November of 1940 and sold new at Capitol Buick in Albany, New York on June 10, 1941. The original owner of the car was Patricia Dickinson. I have the original Owner Service Policy and the original Owner Identification Card. Also, I have about 8 original oil change stickers from the car. This car is an absolute time capsule. Everything about this car is totally original. The car is equipped with the Dynaflash Fireball straight 8 motor, and a three speed manual transmission on the column. The engine of the car is very nice and clean. The Buick runs and drives 100%. The car shifts very smooth and starts up every time you want it to. I have owned lots of antique cars and this is probably the smoothest running, nicest riding 40's car I've ever had. The headlights, tail lights, parking lights and turn signals all work as they should. All of the gauges work properly. The car is also equipped with the rear seat air deflectors. The only thing not working on the car is the radio. The car has brand new wide white wall tires. The interior of the car is in EXCELLENT condition. There are no rips or tears in the seat, carpet, headliner, or door panels. The dash and all the fixtures are in amazing shape. All of the wood trim is like new. All of the glass in the car is in great shape with no cracks or breaks. A few pieces of glass are starting to show signs of delamination, but nothing major. The exterior of the car is in great shape for what it is. I feel like if your looking at this car and interested in buying it is important to understand what it is. This is NOT a totally restored car. It is a 71 year old car with original paint and chrome. The paint is very nice and glossy. There are however, some chips and scratches. Nothing is major, but they are there. There are also a few areas of spider web cracking on the paint. The chrome is all in great shape and shines really nicely. There are a few areas of minor pitting on some different trim pieces. This is a great car. Bid with confidence. If you buy this car and feel like I didn't describe it accurately and you don't want it no problem no hard feelings. I'll gladly hold on to it. The miles are listed on the clear PA title, and the odometer works as it should. I have tons of pictures of this car so if you need any additional pictures please feel free to ask. My dad and I have been PA car dealers since 1989. We have an antique car business as a HOBBY, and this is not our full time job. We do it because it’s fun for us. I try to be as honest and accurate as I can when describing a car. I would rather a customer buy a car from me and it is nicer than they were expecting then vice versa. I try to include a variety of different pictures as well. If you’d like additional pictures of a specific area or any type of information please feel free to ask, and I will do my best to accommodate you. I will accept cash, certified bank check or wire transfer ONLY. Please understand that this is a 71 year old car with original 71 year old paint. It is NOT perfect. I would rate as an excellent survivor, and an excellent candidate for the new survivor judging or any HPOF judging in AACA. Please feel free to contact me with any question (724) 771-5170. Thank you.

Buick really wants us to know the new Cascada convertible won't leak
Thu, Apr 16 2015Quality testing on the factory floor is nothing to joke about. Automakers need to make sure the work being done is up to snuff, and that means some extensive checks. For Buick, that means using a lot of water for each of its Cascada convertibles. Each vehicle that rolls off the floor is subject to a high-pressure, ten-minute soaking that sprays nearly 20 gallons of water from each nozzle during every bath, just to guarantee the fabric roof hasn't sprung any leaks. For some reason, Buick has chosen to show off this testing with the help of what we imagine is the Gorton's Fisherman's baby cousin. Check out the strange testing video, available up top.
Malaise Era Junkyard Gem: 1979 Buick Electra Limited
Wed, Jun 22 2016In the fall of 1973, the Arab members of OPEC shut off the oil taps, and Detroit got busy making many of their full-sized land yachts a lot smaller. By model year 1977, the downsized fifth-generation Buick Electra was ready to go ... just in time for the 1979 Iranian Revolution to squeeze the supply of the black stuff even further. You won't see many of the 1977-85 Electras these days, but I spotted this faded but solid '79 Limited sedan in a Denver self-service yard last week. General Motors must have bought up the entire world's supply of blue velour around this time, because you'll see this stuff in just about every car they made for the following decade or so. By this time, GM was doing a lot of mixing-and-matching with engines from its various divisions, which meant you could buy an Oldsmobile 88 with a Chevrolet 350 V8 engine, a Chevrolet Monza with a Buick 231 V6 engine, or— as in this case— a Buick Electra with an Oldsmobile 350 V8 engine. Do you want to know how many horses this engine delivered to this 3,631-pound car? 155 horsepower out of 5.7 liters of engine displacement. Times were tough during the Malaise Era.
