1939 Buick Special
Watch the Test-Drive-Video / additional DETAILS are below the photos.
1939 Buick Special Business Coupe / RESTO-MOD
The build was completed in 2016 and was featured in STREET RODDER magazine. The build was a collaboration of some of the best-known talent in the greater Dallas area. The owner who commissioned the build was NOT focused on cost, but rather focused on ending up with the prefect blend of “original charm†with hidden modern performance enhancements all with a nod to the American Hot Rod and old-world craftsmanship.
It currently has less than 1,500 miles on it and thus has NO evidence of WEAR. The beautiful lines on the body of this ‘39 Buick are all the more stunning in the rich Bentley color called Havana (a beautiful metallic dark chocolate hue). The paint job was done by one of the top shops in this area and it is absolutely stunning.
At a casual glance this beauty looks substantially stock, but it’s anything but stock and you can have a blast with it. In my opinion it’s one of the most tasteful builds of a car of this vintage that I have ever seen. Not only does it retain the LOOK that we all fell in love with to start with, it has benefited from some of the best automotive talent in the area using some of the best components available today to create a true top-flight resto-mod. Win major shows with this one.
