Congratulations you have a 1941 Special Touring Sedan. Dual or singl carb? I have a model 41 with the upgrade of a dual carb, radio, clock etc. Your car was built in Flint Michigan as designated by the 1 in the begining of the VIN number. The 900 Trim number relates to tan and gray bedford cord material. Your engine number should start with a 4 which designates the 40 series.
A must have book is Restoration Facts 1941 Buickby William C. Anderson. The book is a great resource of information for the 1941 Buick.

Matt, Thanks for the update and hope someday you will be able to bring back the registry. They are great cars. Did you finish the Century or is that on hold for now?

Does anyone know what happened to the Dual Carb Registry for 41-42 Buicks?

Thanks for the reply. If the engine is black and a replacement, does the year of the engine matter as long as it is the correct size for the car model? Are replacement engine codes for model years as well?

I am looking for a 1940 Buick. I have noticed that the engine colors vary from black to gray to light blue. What is the correct color for a 40? Did Buick change engine color during production as it did in 41? Thanks

Thanks for all of the advice. I had already replaced the glove box because I did not have a key for it. Also I did not get a key for the ignition and door locks. As most already know you really do not need an ignition key to start the car. Nice security feature!! I pulled the ignition lock today. I was unable to locate any numbers on it. Also, I can not be sure if it is original or not. The removal of the door lock set looks like quite alot of work. Any short cuts? Thanks
