Buick called this car the Standard Six Series 115, Model 24; it was their Sport Roadster, which comfortably seated two, but could handle up to four passengers, thanks to its standard rumble seat. Under the long hood was an overhead-valve, four-main bearing inline-six. Fed by a Marvel T3 carburetor, this 207 cu in engine--with a new cylinder head design--made 63hp and 140 lbs ft of torque. It was mated to a three-speed manual gearbox that featured a new-for-1928 conventional "H" shift pattern.(Hemmings) Owned and stored meticulously, vehicle last driven two years ago. Selling for an estate.
