With just over 12000 made, this Business Coupe was purchased from its original owner in 1975 by a gentleman who commissioned a full ground-up, frame-off, nut and bolt restoration to factory specifications. This second owner always had it garage kept and meticulously maintained this vehicle for the last 37 years.

The highly detailed engine compartment features a fully serviced and sorted Buick 248-cid Straight-Eight engine and a three-speed transmission. The classic Buick lines are highlighted by a beautiful Black exterior which has a mirror finish, and all of the exterior chrome is like new including the huge front split grill, front and rear bumpers, side trim and window reveals. Wide whitewall tires and chrome Buick hub caps round out the exterior. Equally impressive is the immaculate tan cloth interior. The seats, carpet, headliner and door panels are all factory new, and the dash is complimented by fully functional gold on silver gauges with crystal clear lenses and a huge ivory Buick steering wheel. The original owner’s manual and shop manual are included with this car as well.
