    Owner Comments:
    Professionally Restored just a few months ago, with less than 100 miles on it since restoration, however original odometer shows 65,456. Every aspect of this Buick has been tended to. All original, except for wheel/tire combo and color of convertible top. All glass, chrome and trim pieces are in immaculate glistening condition. Powered by the original 248ci Fireball Straight 8 Engine and mated to the original 3-Speed Manual Column Shift. Power maroon colored convertible top, power seat and power windows, this car was ahead of its time in 1948. The exterior is finished in an ultra deep black paint that shines beautifully. The interior is finished in new red leather, including door panels. One standout feature, this Buick has been converted over to a 12v electrical system for easy maintenance in the 21st century. Previous owner stated over $70,000 went into this build! Too many new features to list but here are the majority of the: NEW: Battery Chrome Bumpers and Moldings Coker Whitewall Tires Exhaust System Clutch and Brakes All Glass All Rubbers Headlamps Tail Lamp Lenses Reverse Lamps Front Signal Lamp Lenses Quarter Round Reflectors Trunk Chrome Emblem Base Trunk Emblems Left & Right Mirrors Convertible Handle Hood Release Chrome Surround & Handles Rear Window Crank Handles Both Rear Ash Trays Chrome Door Lock Buttons Rear View Mirror 4 Front Seat Pull Cord Escutcheon Accelerator Pedal Floor Pedal Seal, Cutch/Brake, Black, Pair Brake/Clutch Pedal Pads Glove Box Liner Firewall Insulator Door Jam Light Switch Door Jam Striker Dovetail Door Striker Both Headlight Bezels Both Headlight Bulb Retaining Rings Both Headlight to Fender Mounting Pads Both Tail Light Mounting Pads Trunk Handle Mounting Pad 2 “Super” Emblems Heater Control Valve Gas Tank Sending Unit In Line Fuel Filter 2 Motor Mounts Transmission Mount
