Difference between 1932 model 80 and model 90?

[Guffin]

Besides wheelbase, weight and price, what is the difference between model 80 and model 90 of Buick 1932? I have looked in the shop manual and parts manual and could only find one more difference; model 90 had covers over the suspension springs.

Hej Leif,

There are other differences than wheelbase among the models. E g 80 and 90 have real wood instead of wood imitation and cigar lighter at the back seat. Model 80/90 had also more chromed parts than 50 and 60, e g door locks and door guides. Motor was also larger for 80/90. I am interested in learning about such details.

The 80 series had metal garnish moldings,and the 90 had real wood. The other interior appointments were the same,except for the before mentioned lighter. The materials use on the seats were the same.

Hi Old Guy,

Actually, the model 80 also has real wood and not imitation, at least my car. Has 90 rear corner lamps in the limo and sedan? 80 has not.
