1947 Buick Special 8

Vehicle Description

This wonderful Buick Special is being offered for sale in Seattle WA. She has a well documented history that come with the car in binder form detailing her many owners, trips and details over her many years and miles on the road. She has traveled over 102,000 miles all over the country.

I acquired the car in 2021 with the paint, chrome and complete interior in the condition as it is now. I performed numerous mechanical updates to make it a wonderful driving car. The tire rods were replaced to remove play in the steering, the lever action shocks were all rebuilt to give it a much nice ride. The radiator was recored, carburetor was rebuilt… her 248 CI straight eight starts the first try, hot or cold and runs smooth with no leaks.

The clutch was replaced, all wheel cylinders and brake hoses were replaced and the car stops confidently and straight. It received a new exhaust manifold and complete exhaust system, a new battery and the distributor was converted to electronic ignition. All the gauges work as they should, it got a new gas sending unit so the fuel gauge reads properly. The clock is non operational. The car has zero rust anywhere and there is no evidence of any rust repair either. All the trim is in very nice shape and all intact. It has several extras added, the spot light, fog lamps, tissue holder as well as a car cover in its own travel bag in the trunk.
