Description
Discover a genuine 1940 Buick Special Model 46 Business Coupe—a scarce find from the golden age of American automotive engineering. This original example is powered by Buick's legendary in-line 8-cylinder Dynaflash engine paired with a three-on-the-tree manual transmission and step starter, delivering smooth, quiet performance. Recent mechanical work includes a complete carburetor overhaul, new fuel pump, rebuilt brakes, fresh fluids throughout the engine, transmission, and differential, plus new battery and tires.
The car runs and drives exceptionally well. Custom-fabricated rear air shocks and bolt-on mounts enhance comfort for daily driving. Original cloth interior, period-correct steel wheels with hub caps and white wall tires, and an AM radio complete the period package.
The exterior finish is a honest 20-footer that buffs out nicely—perfect for a driver rather than a show car. All fluids and gaskets have been recently serviced. This is straightforward, dependable transportation steeped in pre-war American character.
