HIGHLIGHTS: Tastefully restored and customized street rod Buick 455ci V8! Widened rear fenders! Slick burgundy metallic paint TH400 3-speed automatic transmission Air conditioning Power front disc brakes! Custom interior BODY OVERVIEW: This Buick retains its classic 1940s silhouette, with the exterior kept largely true to its original form. Subtle, tasteful changes include shaved door handles, Frenched lights, widened rear fenders, flip-up fuel door, American Racing wheels, and chrome exhaust tips. The original trim pieces really make this thing pop, and the chrome shines brightly, giving this street rod a refined, period-correct presence rather than an over-the-top custom look. These tasteful modifications work together to give this Buick a subtle modern touch without sacrificing the cars timeless design. PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW: Finished in a striking custom metallic burgundy, the paint shows very well and complements the Buicks elegant lines perfectly. We don't have an exact time frame for when the car was painted, however whoever painted it was clearly a professional. The paint is not wavy, not bubbling anywhere and presents today like it was painted yesterday. There are minor signs of use consistent with a well-maintained, occasionally enjoyed classic. But ultimately, the paint really pops in the sunlight, and the chrome accents from tip to tail really set it off! It's something you would be proud to display and take home awards with at your local car show INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW: The custom leather interior is both comfortable and stylish, blending modern convenience with classic appeal. Leather power bucket seats, a center console with armrest and cupholder, a chrome tilt steering column, and a tasteful three-spoke steering wheel create a cockpit that feels upscale without looking out of place, and doesnt detract from the original art-deco design. Fit and finish are nicely executed, making sure the inside of this car is just as beautiful as the outside! MECHANICAL OVERVIEW: Power comes from a Buick 455ci V8, keeping this street rod proudly Buick-powered. Upgrades include an aluminum intake manifold, HEI ignition, dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers, GM 10-bolt rear end, aluminum radiator, electric cooling fan, and a TH400 3-speed automatic transmission. Power front disc brakes, power steering, and air conditioning make it easy and comfortable to drive in modern conditions, and the car runs, drives, and sounds excellent. This Buick can comfortably keep up with modern traffic all day long!
