Overview of 1964 Buick Special Restomod For Sale by Owner

The Special was built for several decades, undergoing multiple facelifts, including this particular iteration of a 1964 Buick Special Restomod. An automobile built for the people, the Special was a full-size car that came in different forms, this one being a 2-door. A restomod project, this Buick has been saved from expiration and given a new lease on life, ready to be enjoyed and appreciated by all passers-by, especially the driver. Packed with plenty of modern conveniences, a slick paint job, and a rebuilt engine that the current owner reports has less than 3,000 miles on the clock, very little can be said to turn down this special Buick.

Exterior and Interior

Sporting a beautiful Sherwood Green color for its exterior, this 1964 Buick Special Restomod has undergone serious revamping in the bodywork department. The current owner reports the vehicle includes new doors, flooring, inner walls, fenders, roof, re-chromed parts, new quarter panels, and more. It also comes with a new set of wheels, which according to the owner, is from a 1964 Buick Skylark. Almost every part of this car has been put together with new components to ensure its quality in the modern day. The straight lines and the boxy design are nods toward evidence that this, indeed, is a car from close to half a century ago. Oh, we also have to mention the gorgeous branding of the vehicle. The grey interior doesn't desecrate the retro and classic interior of the vehicle, preserving it well. The inside has a simple yet elegant aesthetic that fits the vehicle well, allowing very little to distract anyone from the car's amazing engine, which we'll get into right now.

Engine

Significant work has been put into this 1964 Buick Special Restomod, which is evident in the quality of the finished product. The current owner reported a newly rebuilt engine from a Buick 1964 and a rebuilt 2-speed automatic transmission. From power steering, new brakes, new gas tank, exhaust, battery, new springs, and brakes, as well as plenty more upgrades to keep this 1964 Buick Special Restomod ticking and purring like a kitten with its massive 5.6L V8.

Current Ask
SOLD

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 1972 Buick Gran Sport is a great example of why Buick’s muscle cars have always had their own following. Where some competitors leaned almost entirely into aggression, the GS mixed real V8 performance with a more polished, upscale feel, and this 60,979-mile example captures that balance nicely. Finished in Burnished Copper with a Black vinyl roof over a Black interior, it pairs a 350ci V8 and 4-barrel carburetor with a TH350 3-speed automatic and rear-wheel drive. The equipment list is especially appealing for an enthusiast cruiser, with power disc brakes, power steering, air conditioning, a full-length console, Rallye steering wheel, tinted glass, chrome-plated wheels, and period stereo equipment all part of the package. It has the visual presence of a proper early-1970s muscle car, but with the comfort and restraint that made Buick’s Gran Sport line feel a little more grown-up than the average stoplight bruiser.

$14,999

The 1984 Buick Riviera Coupe comes from an era when personal luxury cars were all about presence, comfort, and a sense of occasion, and this example delivers that character in a particularly period-correct package. Showing 41,329 miles, it is finished in Light Sand Gray over a Burgundy velour interior and powered by a 307ci V8 paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. The padded Burgundy vinyl roof, burl woodgrain trim, split front bench seat, column-mounted shifter, and Riviera hood ornament give it the unmistakable look and feel of an upscale 1980s Buick, while air conditioning, power accessories, and the Concert Sound audio system add the comfort expected from the nameplate. It is the kind of Riviera that appeals less through outright performance and more through its relaxed cruising character, distinctive styling, and richly finished cabin.

$19,200

The 1961 Buick Electra 225 Riviera 4-Door Hardtop captures Buick at the height of its early-1960s luxury era, combining dramatic styling with a long list of power conveniences. Showing approximately 72,246 miles, this example is finished in silver metallic over a gray cloth and vinyl interior and is powered by Buick’s 401ci Wildcat V8 paired with a Turbine Drive two-speed automatic. Power steering, power brakes, power windows, factory air conditioning and heat, and a Wonderbar radio give it the kind of equipment expected from Buick’s flagship lineup, while the Riviera designation adds further distinction to an already imposing full-size hardtop.
