Lot #968 - This 1948 Buick Model 56-C Super convertible is powered by a 248ci 8-cylinder engine mated to a 3-speed manual transmission. Fully restored and out of a long-term ownership, this car has been fully inspected and serviced. It has a power convertible top, power windows and radio. This car was owned by a noted collector for many years and was fully restored. It was driven and maintained by the collection management team and it still looks the part of a well-restored car. The paint and trim are in good condition. There is slight old pitting noted on the rear window lower trim that has been re-chromed since. Aside from those two pieces, all of the trim is nice. The interior is correctly restored - all of the controls and instruments work, the seats are firm with the correct pattern and the door panels and roof liner are also fresh in appearance. The Super starts quickly on its original gas pedal starter and idles silently. The brakes and clutch are strong and reliable. The trunk area is clean and holds the spare and jack.
