The 1938 Buick Special was an important transitional model in Buick history and the final year Buick incorporated structural wood elements into its body construction, making it especially significant among collectors. The Art Deco-inspired design continues inside with an ornate dashboard, beautifully styled instrumentation, and classic details that reflect the craftsmanship of the period.

Every detail reflects the attention to quality and luxury that defined the brand.
Power comes from Buick's dependable 248 cubic-inch (3.8L) Straight-8 engine producing 107 horsepower, paired with a 3-speed manual transmission. Buick's advanced engineering for the time included hydraulic drum brakes, torque tube drive, and all-coil suspension, providing a remarkably smooth and refined driving experience compared to many of its flathead-powered competitors. Recent mechanical updates include a new battery and new water pump, ensuring dependable operation and enjoyment. This beautifully restored Buick Special Business Coupe is a wonderful representation of pre-war automotive design, offering a unique combination of history, elegance, and drivability.
