Overview of 1947 Buick Special Model 51 Restomod For Sale by Owner

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.
