1948 Buick 4-door Super Eight

You are looking at a 1948 Buick 4-door Super Eight. Straight 8 motor with a 3 speed standard transmission. It has a new master cylinder; new brake cylinders. shoes. and the seal bearings have been greased. The 6 volt fuel pump works well. The steering is all real tight. The car drives excellent. good clutch and transmission. no noise. the rear end is quiet. The motor has no compression in cylinder #7. We changed the oil and filter and went through the carburetor. We also set the points and adjusted the valves. This car still pulls itself. and that’s how I can tell how nice the rest of the car feels. This old Buick is 95% rust free. the floorboards still have their factory undercoating. The trunk area is rust free also (as you can see in the pictures). There is also a spot of rust on the right rear rocker panel. which is easy to repair since the panels just unbolt from the body. The body has some dents. but as you can see it’s in pretty nice shape. Front bumper and grill are in excellent shape. Original windshields are good. but the left and right door glass needs to be replaced. The rest of the glass is excellent. The Fulton sun visor was professionally installed at the dealership when the car was new. This car has brand new 15 inch classic radial white wall tires. The Buick still has all of its original upholstery. and it is intact. but needs to be replaced. The dash is in excellent condition; all the original gauges still work. turn signal assembly. horn. wipers. radio and all the lights work. All the stainless moldings are there. but a couple of them should probably be replaced. This Buick is also equipped with the original fog lamps and spotlight. The right hood latch needs to be replaced This car was originally green. and then someone painted it the red color that it is now. The paint now looks more like a red oxide primer. a real nice patina. These old cars are getting to be pretty rare. especially the ones that aren’t all rusted up. This Super Eight is a great restoration candidate and the reserve is nice and low. Thanks for looking. If you have any questions send us a message or call Jack at 208-870-7266 (USA.
