1936 Buick Series 40 Special Business Coupe

This 1936 Buick Series 40 Special Business Coupe is finished in tan and brown over tan and powered by a 233ci straight-eight paired with a three-speed manual transmission. Features include body-colored headlamps, a vented hood, body-colored artillery wheels with whitewall tires, chrome front and rear bumpers, dual fender-mounted spare wheels, hydraulic four-wheel drum brakes, a full trunk, and a wood dash. Details include a split rear window, full fenders with dual spare wheels, body-colored headlamps, a vented hood, chrome bumpers, and bright-finished trim. The vehicle was reportedly refurbished after a collision in the 1990s that resulted in damage to the right-front fender. The body-colored artillery wheels have pinstriping with Buick center caps and are mounted with whitewall tires. Braking is handled by four-wheel hydraulic drums. The cabin features a front bench seat trimmed in tan cloth with matching door panels. Additional interior appointments include a storage area behind the seat, an analog clock, a wood dash, crank windows, a lockable glovebox, vent windows, and a rear trunk space in place of the standard rumble seat. The three-spoke steering wheel fronts a multi-function gauge with a 100-mph speedometer and readouts for fuel level, water temperature, amperage, and oil pressure. The 233ci straight-eight featured an overhead-valve cylinder head, five main bearings, and a counterweighted crankshaft.
