Description:

It is hard to do , but I am selling my 1953 Buick Super.
This car runs and drives great, nothing says Buick like the smooth ride and awesome power of the
first year Nailhead 322 v-8
.
This car says class when you see it with the beautiful waterfall grill, large headlight doors and the wonderful sweeping fender lines.
This car was owned by two family members from new when I purchased it from the second owner (the niece of the first owner), the car even has the new car dealer delivery instrument tags and the booklets that I have received from the second owner.
All of the gauges and radio work. All of the window glass is in good condition and the windows operate smoothly as they should. The rubber seals are original and are serviceable, as can be seen in the photographs.
Since I have owned the car, the following work has been completed to keep this classic on the road running safe and sound;
- New wheel cylinders, master cylinder, brake shoes and hoses., as well as the front drums turned- New wheel grease / oil seals, front and rear.- The fuel pump has been rebuilt- Carburetor has been rebuilt- New fuel sender installed- Plugs, wires, points, condenser, distributor cap all new- All of the rubber heater and rubber transmission cooler lines were also changed.- New Battery- New Thermostat
The vacuum wipers do not function at this time.
I have posted some videos on youtube and you will see that the transmission is smooth and the car cruises nicely at 55 - 60 mph. The steering is solid and tight as well as the ride is very smooth.
I have run out of room and I have promised to sell some of my cars since I can either add more space or give up some of my toys.
While I like the car a lot and I think that it is a wonderful car, any prospective buyer may not feel the same. I encourage any bidders to schedule an inspection prior to bidding. THE CAR IS BEING SOLD AS-IS, WHERE IS.
I have tried to describe the car as best as I can, and I have tried to take good pictures and have even supplied videos' s (see links). If you need more pictures or to speak with me live, please contact me at 267-374-1001.
It is up to you to determine the condition of the car and you must rely on your own assessment of the vehicle before you choose to bid.
If you have a feedback score of 5 or less, please contact me before bidding or I will be forced to cancel your bid.
The winning bidder has up to three weeks to remove the car from the premises from the date that the title is transferred (upon clearance of funds at my bank).
The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the listing at any time.
