Well I am no model A afficionado but this styles looks pretty nice. Moreover these cars are just not practical for driving on the todays roads so I will probably never own one. The 12 volt conversion inappropriate on the is car and the alternator looks out of place. The question I was going ask is if the gas is a gravity feed to the carburetor? But then I saw the plastic container tilted downward and that answered my question! I not sure of the value on these things but I would guess good original would fetch money in the high teens. But this one has issues so maybe it's a 10 to 12 thousand dollar car! Oh yeah the description say a 5 spd tranny???

Though I love Buicks of this era this one at 80G's doesn't exactly float my boat. First it is a Special and 248 ci straight 8 and not the bigger 320 motor. I too prefer the 4 door convertibles. I know of a 38 Roadmaster convertible owned locally in very similar condition and it probably approaches 80G's but realistically 70 to 75G's is probably where it would be valued. Remember a Roadmaster is a lot more car than a special! I have seen some stunning brown and tan color combinations but this one doesn't do much for me but that's a personal thing. The 38 Buicks are a personal favorite of mine and the actual quality of the restoration on this one 'looks' good but I think the seller is trying to recoup some of the restoration costs in the price!

It will be interesting to see how to does... https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1940-pontiac-special-deluxe-sport-coupe/ I have no interest in this vehicle and have no stake in the sale.

I'm a little more optimistic on this one. I think aesthetically speaking if you removed those seat covers, removed and replaced the carpeting, removed, scrubbed and reinstalled the door and sail panels, wet sanded the paint and polished the chrome this beast would come alive! However there's no telling the amount of rust that this thing could have. But at least the seller stating it needs brakes which you have to assume that it needs front and rear brakes with the possibility of a master cylinder Seller also states it needs the fuel tank and lines cleaned out. What I am getting at this could be a decent driver but there would a considerable amount of work and money to get there.

Not too much to like with this design. But that's me! That this one is painted and the interior has been redone is a big step in the right direction. But what lurks below the skin is the question. The brakes need to be bled; hmm😝 Chances are the brakes will need more work and then bled after that. This one needs a good inspection before you buy it.

These and the K series from the 30's are my favorite Lincolns. If Edsel Ford saw these Continentals he would probably okay with them. However he would roll over in his grave with what followed these in later in the fifties. I don't think I would ever own a K series or these Continentals because they are just too much money to fix and not fun to work on.. These Continentals are very solid and stately

No surprise that it sold as quick as it did. That one looked real nice

So I take it the seller wants someone to pay him 3500 bucks to get the privilege of sorting through his junk in hopes of hauling away 2 basket case Buicks. Sure, that sounds appealing!

At first I thought to post the ad like everyone else. Then I thought no, I did that for Buick35 on the last car; Afterall posting an ad is a pretty easy thing to do.....

Nice pictures of an awesome car!

WOW that car looks like a "mighty fine" example. It's a shame the seller didn't post pictures of the interior, engine area and under carriage. I think it does say N-A-S-S-A-U...

Cool old cruiser great candidate for restoration or enjoy it how it is. Mostly original 1941 Buick Super Series 50 4 door touring sedan. Straight 8 248 C.I. 3 on the tree. Original 6 volt system still with all lights working as they should. I'm told from previous owner paint is mostly original, it appears there have been some touch ups in door jams and other small places. There are some spots where paint has been washed or polished thru over the years on the roof and trunk lid.. Car runs, drives, and stops, drove it home about 30 miles when purchased last summer. Interior is complete. Radio doesn't work but it does light up. Clock in dash doesn't seem to work. And I've removed the gear on the speedo cable since it needs changed and can be very noisy when driving. New front and rear sway bar links and rear shock links. Just looking to get the space back in my garage. Don't need to sell but I'd rather someone else enjoy it while I tend to other project. Don't need help selling. Not willing to ship. Cash is king. https://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/cto/d/colliers-1941-buick-super-series-50/7673190213.html I do not own this car and I have no stake in the sale

Sometimes basic cars are more interesting than full gussied up top of the line models. This one checks that box! The little Ford is even more attractive because of all the work the owner has done. For some reason this one grabs me but I have no where to park it. I think 8 grand is a great price. GLWTS

I agree it's a rarity and its got an eight cylinder in it! My issue is it's so boring to look at; no curb appeal! The interior is just as bland as the exterior.

This is the way you buy a Cadillac. Buy one in the best shape you can afford and go from there. This one appears to be something to consider if you wanted a Cadillac from the 60's. Decent paint and upholstery and it drives. Then you're left with projects that can be done over time. I like this one but having an adequate covered parking spot might be limiting for some including myself.

Referring to the turn signal issue. Turn signals actually started appearing on the 39 models. I had a 39 special coupe and it had them! The seller has a homemade wooden center console (which I hate) that has an aftermarket stereo in it. On top of that there are speakers in the kick panels, ugh! The steering wheel which may or may not be original to a 51 Buick and it's missing the horn ring. Additionally the carpet is not even close to the original. I don't know about the paint. You might be able to cut and buff it but the paint looks to far gone in certain areas for that. All that aside, if the car has good bones and it looks as though it does, there's a whole lot of car there for 5800 bucks!

This is a nice car. It's a 4 door and the owner did a bunch of stuff to it and so I guess the owner knew he would never get his money back. The aftermarket gauges are mounted in a stupid place and look tacky on this car. I can only assume it needs interior work

That looks a cool car with a floor shifter and a console. The Cragar wheels actually look pretty good! I like the way the dash gauges are laid out/designed. The air conditioner compressors were pretty big in those day but I don't see one in cryptic picture. GLWTS!

Apart from the punctuation issues in the ad this car doesn't look that bad. There's a lot of questions I would have if I were trying to buy it. But it does seem like it's fairly priced.

I posted this one because of its rarity. In my travels with old cars it's very rare to see a panel van that isn't beat up. These were never cherished like the owner would have with his new family car. These things were utilitarian work trucks. They were definitely not styled like todays pick ups. It needs some TLC in the engine area and in the cargo area. Those hub caps look like they're off a late 70's Chevy van.

This car is as plain as they come. The thing that I like the most on this one are pliers attached to the negative battery terminal. That some real engineering for ya! It's also overpriced!

Here it is: 1950 Chevy, two door business, coupe - $8,500 https://tampa.craigslist.org/psc/cto/d/hudson-1950-chevy-two-door-business/7675524515.html 1950 Chevrolet, deluxe, business coupe barn find , straight six motor three speed on the column ,all complete all original parts ,needs interior redone, but runs and drives can drive it home. not mine and I have no stake in the sale

Oh wow, I do like this one a lot. I think it's on the cheap side for a convertible. I bet the odometer would actually read 126759 or maybe 226759 if it had one more digit....

Well when the modern car needs a part to correct a problem usually that part is not sold separately and so the customer must buy the assembly that the part is in. For instance in a modern day Land Rover the cooling hose will blister than start leaking. You'd think that it's just replacing the hose... No, the customer must buy the assembly which consist of about 3 or 4 hoses attached to plastic coupling part. In some of the modern MBZ's with a V8 there is a flapper valve that swirls air/fuel mixture on the intake manifold and the arm of that valve breaks. We'll you can't just buy the valve because it's not sold separately; you have to buy the complete intake manifold! Most all the OEM's do this now. So an R&R repair is okay on some levels but in the long run the tech is being dumbed down and the OEM is making more money. What a great racket, eh? At one Ford dealer the shop foreman lamented that the industry getting close to the point the computer in the vehicle will self diagnose the problem and the scanner will be able to tell you the fix! I have done thousands mechanical inspections to validate warranty claims. I literally eat, sleep cars. My hobby is old cars and my work is with modern cars!
