This 1947 Buick Special Model 51 has been transformed from a post-war American sedan into a meticulously built restomod that blends classic Buick elegance with modern performance and usability. Offered from Corpus Christi, Texas, it rides on an all-steel body finished in cream with burgundy window accents and is powered by a GM 6.0L Vortec LS V8 paired to a 4L80E 4-speed automatic transmission.
Exterior and Interior
The cream paintwork, recently corrected and ceramic coated, is highlighted by burgundy accents around the windows, delivering a subtle two-tone effect that enhances the car’s flowing lines. Ceramic-tinted glass, 18-inch chrome US Mag wheels, and custom chrome trim provide additional touches of sophistication. Inside, the tan and burgundy cloth interior balances classic design cues with modern upgrades, including a banjo-style steering wheel and a Bluetooth-enabled audio system. Comfort is further elevated by Vintage Air climate control, giving the cabin both nostalgia and contemporary convenience.
Engine
Beneath the hood lies a naturally aspirated 6.0L GM Vortec LS V8 equipped with Holley electronic fuel injection, paired to a 4L80E 4-speed automatic transmission. The drivetrain is reinforced by a GM 12-bolt rear end with 3.73:1 gears, dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers, and a 4-row radiator with electric fans for reliable cooling. Suspension and handling are modernized with ladder bars, adjustable coilovers, and Heidts independent systems, while power-assisted disc brakes and power steering ensure confident control.
This 1940 Buick Special Series 40 Convertible Coupe blends prewar elegance with postwar V8 performance thanks to a later-model drivetrain upgrade. While retaining its classic proportions and convertible charm, this example benefits from a 350ci Buick V8 and automatic transmission, making it far more usable and approachable for modern driving. The combination of vintage styling and mechanical updates gives this Buick a restomod character without straying too far from its original identity.
The 1937 Buick Special Series 40 Convertible represents a distinctive moment in prewar American automotive design, blending elegant Art Deco styling with the smooth, streamlined proportions that defined Buick’s entry-level luxury models of the era. While Buick was known for refinement and engineering sophistication in the 1930s, this example advances that legacy by integrating modern performance and comfort into a classic platform. Finished in Silver and fitted with a Carson-style removable top, this restomod preserves the graceful lines of the original convertible while transforming it into a high-performance cruiser that bridges prewar aesthetics and contemporary hot rod culture.
The 1938 Buick Special Series 40 Sedan captures the elegance and innovation of pre-war American motoring, blending Buick’s hallmark smoothness with stylish Art Deco design. Offered from Nevada, Missouri, this example remains highly original, powered by its 248ci inline-eight paired to a 3-speed manual transmission. With 72,366 miles, it stands as both a collectible pre-war classic and a usable vintage sedan that showcases Buick’s engineering achievements of the era.
The Buick GS 455 remains one of the most respected muscle cars of the golden era, pairing Buick’s reputation for comfort and refinement with the brute force of a massive big-block V8. While many enthusiasts gravitate toward Chevrolet, Ford, and Mopar offerings, the GS 455 has earned a loyal following thanks to its impressive torque output and understated styling. This 1970 Buick GS 455 Coupe shows approximately 94,245 miles and is finished in its iconic Gulfstream Blue color combination. Featuring desirable GS styling cues, performance-oriented upgrades, and a well-appointed interior, this Buick represents a compelling opportunity to own one of the most capable and collectible muscle cars of the early 1970s.
1970 marked an important year for Buick’s midsize muscle car lineup, as the Skylark 350 Sport Coupe blended the brand’s signature comfort with increasingly aggressive performance styling. While Buick’s GS models often stole the spotlight, well-optioned Skylarks like this example have become increasingly appreciated for offering the same muscular A-body proportions and V8-powered driving experience at a more approachable level. Showing approximately 19,245 miles on the odometer, this Skylark benefits from a substantial refurbishment and modernization effort that included drivetrain work, suspension upgrades, steering enhancements, interior refresh, and cosmetic refinishing. Finished in Bamboo Cream over a Saddle vinyl interior, this Buick stands out with tasteful GS Stage 1-inspired styling cues, upgraded handling components, and classic American muscle car presence.
The first-generation Buick Riviera remains one of the most elegant American personal luxury coupes ever produced, and the 1967 model represents the final and most refined year of the original design. Penned under the direction of Bill Mitchell, the Riviera combined dramatic proportions, hidden headlights, and unmistakable GM styling with serious big-block performance, creating a uniquely sophisticated grand touring machine. This 1967 Buick Riviera, showing just 3,059 miles, presents as a beautifully restored and tastefully upgraded example finished in striking Blue over a Blue and White interior. Powered by Buick’s formidable 430ci V8 and enhanced with select performance and cosmetic upgrades, this Riviera offers the ideal blend of classic luxury, vintage American muscle, and effortless cruising presence.
The 1951 Mercury is one of the most iconic foundations in American custom car culture, forever associated with the legendary lead sled movement and some of the most memorable custom builds ever created. This particular 1951 Mercury 8 Series 1CM is far more than a restored classic—it’s a deeply reengineered custom build that combines traditional custom car artistry with meaningful mechanical modernization. Built on a Chevrolet frame and showing off a dramatic 5-inch chopped top, this Mercury captures the unmistakable silhouette that made customized early-1950s Mercurys so desirable. The extensive modifications elevate this car beyond simple nostalgia, creating a machine that blends classic custom aesthetics with significantly improved drivability, comfort, and reliability. For collectors of true custom Americana, this is exactly the type of car that defines a garage.
This 1941 Ford Pickup Restomod embodies the perfect blend of postwar styling and modern craftsmanship. Originally born during one of Ford’s most iconic eras, this truck has been tastefully reimagined to deliver both classic charm and contemporary performance. The timeless all-steel body, finished in an elegant red and charcoal black two-tone, is paired with a reliable 327ci V8 that provides the punch and smoothness expected from a well-built restomod. With refined details, upgraded systems, and everyday drivability, this truck showcases the best of both vintage heritage and modern engineering.
Chevy’s midsize contender from 1964 to 1977, the Chevelle was one of GM’s most popular A-body models. Three generations were made, and buyers could pick from various body styles. Today, we have a third-generation 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Concours Station Wagon for sale from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. As you might notice, this car has undergone a full restoration. We’re told that it’s been refurbished by Luce Customs and has covered just 1,204 miles since then. With its modern V8, custom sound system, and overall clean appearance, it’s a great restomod to acquire.
