1956 Buick Century Custom Coupe

1956 BUICK CENTURY SPORT COUPE

STUNNING HIGH QUALITY BUICK THAT HAS HAD A BODY-ON RESTORATION OVER THE LAST 3 YEARS. WOULDN'T YOU RATHER HAVE A BUICK CENTURY THAN A 1956 FORD OR CHEVY?

WHEN I ACQUIRED THIS CAR I WENT THROUGH IT'S MECHANICS AND COSMETICS. I AM 78 YEARS OLD AND WANTED A CAR THAT WOULD NOT LEAVE ME STRANDED AND WAS A FLASHY LOOKER AT THE CAR SHOWS.

FIRST ADVENTURE WAS TO PUT AN AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM SINCE I AM IN FLORIDA. THE UNIT WAS COSTLY AND INSTALLATION WAS EXPENSIVE BUT NECESSARY FOR THE FLORIDA HEAT.

BODY-
- PAINT IS EXTREMELY NICE- SUPERIOR GLOSS. 2 YRS.OLD. 9/10.
- ALL BODY PANELS ARE SUPER STRAIGHT
- I PAINTED THE ROOF SAME COLOR AS LOWER SPEAR WHICK WAS ORIGINALLY BLACK.THERE IS A HINT OF VIOLET MIST THAT MAKES THE TWO TONE COMBINATION REALLY POP.
- I DID NOT LIKE THE CONTINENTAL KIT AND SKIRTS LOOK. COMPLETE SET WITH SKIRTS IS WRAPPED IN TRUNK. SEE PHOTOS OF ENTIRE CONTINENTAL KIT AND SKIRTS.

THIS BUICK IS A BEAUTIFUL ROADWORTHY CLASSIC. LOTS OF ATTENTION AT SHOWS.

THE ASKING PRICE IS LESS THAN TWICE THE MONEY I HAVE IN THIS CAR.
