1941 Buick Super 17689 Miles Lancaster Gray Sedan 248ci Fireball I-8 3 Speed Sl

Description

When introduced in 1940 the new Series 50 Super featured the cutting-edge "torpedo" C-body. The new C-body that the 1940 Buick Super shared with the Series 70 Roadmaster the Cadillac Series 62 the Oldsmobile Series 90 and the Pontiac Torpedo featured shoulder and hip room that was over 5" wider the elimination of running boards and exterior styling that was streamlined and 2-3" lower. When combined with a column mounted shift lever the cars offered true six passenger comfort changes that had cl...early been influenced by the Cadillac Sixty Special. The basic formula for the 1940 to 1952 Super was established by mating the Roadmaster's longer behind the engine cowl body to the Series 40 Special's smaller straight-eight engine (and consequently shorter engine compartment). This led to an economical combination of voluminous passenger room and relatively good fuel economy. GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this unique 1941 Buick Super Sedan for your consideration.
