The Special came standard with a 188-brake horsepower, verhead-valve V-8, s well as such no-cost equipment as tubeless tires, irectional signals, rmrests, nd additional insulation, iving the car the comfort that Buick owners had come to expect. It was offered in a complete range of body styles, ncluding two- and four-door hardtops and post sedans and even a station wagon.

The well-kept restoration was an AACA Senior award winner, nd the car still wears the appropriate badge. The panel fit is still excellent throughout, nd the engine bay is correct and well detailed.
