Description:

1956 Buick Special Hot Rod Rat Rod Custom Chevy Powered

Sharp looking mild custom 1956 Buick Special two-door sedan in a Maroon “Hot Rod” mat finish. Power comes from a freshly rebuilt 350 c.i. Chevy backed by a Turbo 400 3- speed automatic transmission.

NO TRADES

The body was stripped and had any rusty areas cut out and new metal welded in place including the floors and lower sections of the doors. The Buick has been nosed and decked, had new front and rear glass, weather stripping and the stainless-steel side trim was refinished. The glass is in good shape except for the driver’s window. Rear windows do not operate. Both front and rear bumpers have been painted and a ’57 Buick front grille has been added.

The upholstery, headliner, and door panels are new and done in a 50’s style roll & pleat. Dash has been painted and a ‘retro’ aftermarket AM/FM/Bluetooth Rockford 4-speaker stereo system with a separate CD player and amplifier was added. Aftermarket oil pressure, voltmeter, and water temperature gauges have been added since none of the factory gauges function including the speedometer. New Painless fuse panel and some new wiring.

As far as the driveline. The small block Chevy was totally rebuilt, and the Buick runs and sounds great. The Turbo 400 shifts fine, but the shifter sometimes pops out of reverse when backing up. Total mileage since build is estimated at 150. Additionally, a new battery, A/C & heat system were added and function normally. The only recommendation by the owner is to have a larger radiator installed since the car tends to overheat in the mid-summer heat with the A/C running, otherwise no problems.

The suspension has new shocks, power steering, power brakes (disc front & drums rear), vintage ladder bars, and new Coker 15” radial tires.

This “Special Custom” starts easily, rides good, and performs well. Only some minor work needs to be done to complete it.

All of the receipts for the work performed are included along with original fender skirts and a car cover.

Selling for personal reasons.

PLEASE BUY WITH CONFIDENCE

While we do our best to provide quality cars with an honest and reliable description and realize the importance of transparency when selling vehicles. We have not built, modified, changed, or personally owned this vehicle. Even though this vehicle is being sold by Kurzmann’s Auto Brokerage we do not know the vehicles complete history since new. We want to be clear and try to answer any questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we do welcome 3rd party independent inspections. Please inquire prior to purchase to make sure the advertised vehicle has not already been sold. If a customer chooses to purchase sight unseen (many of our customers choose this option) the customer accepts the vehicle AS IS and WHERE IS and understands we cannot address concerns after purchase. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer to verify the existence of options, accessories, and the vehicle condition before time of sale.

I have been an active eBay seller of cars and other items for more than 20 years and maintained a 100% rating during most of that period. Approximately 12 years ago I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles on the internet without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all the endless phone calls, “Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!
