For the 1923 model year, Buick styling was substantially improved with crowned fenders, cowl lights and new drum-shaped headlights. The 1923 Buick also received a fresh appearance with its new grille design; this feature would remain virtually unchanged through 1927. Technical improvements included repositioned rear spring hangers, a lower suspension system and a transmission lock. An increase in engine life was achieved through a harder cylinder casting, a larger crankshaft and stronger connecting rods, pistons and main bearings.

This older restoration is finished in hunter green with black fenders with a beautifully presented black interior and top. The Buick offered here is powered by a four-cylinder engine, and is backed by a smooth shifting three-speed transmission. The headlight bezels, door handles and other assorted trim pieces are finished in the correct nickel finish.

This five-passenger sedan has been privately owned and stored in a climate control facility for several years. This well-preserved Phaeton has just recently been refreshed and brought up to road worthy standards again. The car presented here would be welcome at any antique car show, and is sure to make a great addition to any car collection.
