deac Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 (edited) 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 Edited October 19, 2023 by deac (see edit history) 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburnseeker Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Chrome sure looks pretty nice as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingrudy Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Nice looking car. My only concern would be the original wiring, but the price is low enough that if you did the work yourself, I don't think that you would be underwater. Until that is done, I would never leave home without a fire extinguisher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil morse Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 As an owner of the same model Buick, I would say this is a screaming deal! Some additional photos would be nice, but based on what I see here and assuming the information in the ad is on the level, this would be a great car for someone looking to get into the hobby without spending too much money. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
58L-Y8 Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 We been trying to find this screaming deal of a '41 Buick a new owner since March. Unbelievable no one has jumped on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew_Latvia Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I am new here, so hi everyone! In my opinion '41 and '42 Buicks are among best looking immediate pre war car designs. I've been searching for one of these cars for some time, but cannot find anything in good shape and reasonably priced here in Europe. This car looks really good and I would love to buy it. Problem is I am not from USA. I've send e-mail to owner, but he did not reply. Maybe this is fake ad? I would greatly appreciate if someone on the forum would contact the seller to find out if the car is still for sale at all or is there really such a car?

neil morse Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Thank you, Andrew. I contacted the seller of the '41 Super. His response was as follows: "It is still available. I had no idea it had been posted to a forum. There have been a few people interested, some just keep kicking the tires and contacting me, but none close enough to really look at without planning a whole day around it. I don't believe I received an email from Andrew, if I didn't respond it was by mistake." I suggest you try again to send him an email through the Craigs List system.

You can ask one of the members here to go and look if its not to far ( pay for his gas ) If he says its OK send 500$ as downpayment and send the rest to the shipping company who will pay him when its picked up .I did this in the past . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for Your advice! I have never bought a car unseen, let alone from USA, so i am a bit concerned how to do it right, without disappointments. If anyone from forum who's living nearby can go and take a look at the car in person, it would be perfect.

neil morse Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 @Andrew_Latvia Hi Andrew, I got the following message from the seller: "Andrew has been in touch with me but when I send replies and pictures they get kicked back to me. I'm not sure if he's getting my emails." Have you received any of the messages from the seller? I told him that might have better luck if he would just use his actual email account and not go through the Craigslist system. I have a feeling that might be the problem. I would send you a private message, but I don't think you have enough posts to be able to use the private message system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil morse Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Andrew, I sent you a private message with the email address of the seller. I'm pretty sure you can receive private messages even if you can't send one. Please report back here whether you got it or not. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try to contact him through his actual e-mail address. I sent him an message to his craigslist address, asking for more detailed photos, he replied, that it will take some days. As I didn't get any more messages, I wrote him again yesterday, asking if he managed to take those photos. I guess then he contacted You. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew_Latvia Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 The end of the story - car has found a new owner, unfortunately it's not me. The seller was not very easy to communicate with and, apparently, not too interested in selling the car abroad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
