1928 BUICK ROADSTER SPORT WITH RUMBLE SEAT RESTORED TO AMAZING STANDARD RARE FIND FROM CALIFORNIA COLLECTOR PRICED TO SELL: This expertly restored and maintained car will please the most demanding collector. Engine and mechanics are in superb operating condition. The finish quality of both exterior and interior components is extraordinary. This amazing Jazz Age sport roadster is extraordinary with its wood spoke wheels, olf bag compartment and, umble seat. Buick called this car the Standard Six Series 115, odel 24; it was their Sport Roadster, hich comfortably seated two, ut could handle up to four passengers, hanks to its standard rumble seat. Under the long hood was an overhead-valve, our-main bearing inline-six. Fed by a Marvel T3 carburetor, his 207 cu in engine--with a new cylinder head design--made 63hp and 140 lbs ft of torque. It was mated to a three-speed manual gearbox that featured a new-for-1928 conventional "H" shift pattern. This car illustrates why prospective Buick buyers enjoyed greater choices in 1928 than ever before. It featured new Lovejoy hydraulic shock absorbers at each wheel, hich supported a stronger double-drop frame with deeper side channels that afforded a lower, sportier body. Enhancing that body's good looks were smooth fenders, new radiator shell (plated in nickel, ike the hood fasteners and forward- folding windshield frame) and three-bar Wolverine bumpers. Standard Sixes gained the dash- mounted fuel and temperature gauges that most Master Sixes had enjoyed since 1927, nd this Model 24 was one of only two Standard series cars to wear fully plated (rather than plated and painted) headlamp buckets. With just 4,513 built, the Standard Sport Roadster was one of the lowest-production Buicks to leave Michigan in 1928, and this restored example is an excellent specimen. Exterior features including paint, chrome, wood spoke wheels are excellent. Interior components are excellent including seat, ash dials.
