Description of 1955 Buick Other

Up for sale is a 2 door 1955 Buick Super. It is a great project car just waiting to be finished. Obviously it is not new and will need some work but much of the important stuff has already been done to it throughout the years. Body is very solid as is chassis. Overall a very solid CA car, very little surface rust. Car was driven couple times a month only. All original chrome is included.Things done:Rebuilt Automatic transmission approx. 5 years ago ( not many miles on it )Front Drum brakes converted to Disk brakes, approx. 5 years ago.New Master Cylinder and rear cylinders added, approx 5 years ago.New front and rear shocks installed at this time as well.
Latest updates:All new fuel lines, new sending unit and fuel tank was relined (1 yr ago)Fully rebuilt 322 Nailhead V8 engine ( 2 months ago). resurfaced heads, all new gaskets, many new internal parts, including pistons.New water pump, Brand new High Efficiency Copper/Brass Radiator and hoses ( 1 month ago)
If you're into cars or have worked on a classic before, you understand the cost of many of these items, and the time it takes to find them.
Things it needs:to be reupholsteredNew paint and chrome
I recommend a new carb or finding an original Carter WCFB for it. Currently has an Edlebrock and functions fine but is several years old and expect it will need work at some point.Flushing brakes and refilling. Has been sitting a couple months.
I would love to keep it but am relocating. If you are really interested, I will consider all "Reasonable" offers. Don't be afraid to make an offer. Please feel free to ask questions. Thank you for looking. Buyer responsible for shipping.
