Buick Special 1953

Gateway Classic Cars of Scottsdale is pleased to present for sale, on consignment, this really neat 1953 Buick Special. The recently rebuilt 236 cubic inch straight 8 engine is something you surely don’t see very often these days. A rebuilt 3 speed manual transmission lets you easily row through the gears with a column shifter thanks to a new clutch. The ride is improved upon thanks to new coil springs and shocks on all 4 corners. This vehicle is finished in Carlsbad Black with a White top over gray cloth interior. The current owner plucked this car from the frigid temps of Minnesota to bring it here to Arizona 5 years ago. After a fresh detail this car is looking in top shape and is ready for its new owner. The styling cues on this car are just astonishing from the big white walls, the port holes on the front fenders and that massive grille that looks like it chews up cars that get in its way. Moving inside, the dash looks like you just pulled up the tambour on your Grandfather’s rolltop desk and revealed an old AM radio that was designed as an art piece more than a radio. The steering wheel, instrument gauges, the clock and dash knobs all blend together to create this elegant interior. Give our sales staff a call to learn how to bring this one home to you and thanks for looking!
