Purchased one of these in 1954 for $75.00, wow what a car this was. From the 30's first car with sealed beam headlights, could finally see where you were going. With Saganal ball bearting steering, sure didn't need power steering that wasn't heard of at that time. With that straight over head valve eight cylinder motor, no problem going over 100 mph, don't ask me how I know this. Did you nickel in the steel, body rust was unheard of and maintenance on these cars was easy. Could replace a clutch, turn the flywheel and pressure plate for six bucks. Brakes had to be manually adjusted, but no big deal with the proper tool. Dey don't make em like dis anymore.

Beautiful car! I have the 41 Special. This one runs and sounds exactly the same as mine.

Cool, my brother had one 50 yrs ago. Same exact model, only his was 2 tone gray. It was fun to ride around in back in the '60's.

I have that same car sitting in my yard for 25 years! Engine was seized and very rusty. But that's a nice one.

Super, not "Super 8". All Buicks were Buick Eights. Packard and Hudson used the "Super 8" moniker, as they had 6 cylinder models as well.

If you want that, buy one from the mid-50s onwards.

WHY does SOMEONE ALWAYS want to butcher a great original car by slamming in some big V8 engine?

They have no brains and no appreciation of history.
