If one were to hear the brand name Buick, what would spring to mind are some of the most impressive classic cars in history. An interesting fact about Buick is that it was among the first American automobile brands and was the company that established General Motors. It was founded more than a century ago and granted the world with fascinating automobiles that are coveted today. The Buick Special, otherwise known as the Series 40, is a model line produced by the company that was usually its lowest-priced model. In the year 1940, Buick marketed their year lineup as new and improved, and our subject, the 1940 Buick Special Series 40 Coupe, was among them.
Up for sale in Virginia, this fully restored example harks back to a time when even the entry-level models exuded glamour and presence. Being a 1940 model year, this Buick gained an inch on its wheelbase and had its headlamps incorporated into the front fenders. Its enclosed nose, wide chrome grille, bumpers, side trim, and intriguing details like the turn signal atop the front fenders add to its character. Completing the look is a deep black paint job, which is complemented by period-correct steel rims with chrome hubcaps wrapped in new whitewall tires. The interior has also been restored to its original specifications with grey Bedford cloth and mohair fabric. All the gauges, trim pieces, steering wheel, and other associated parts are as they came from the factory. The trunk compartment houses the spare tire and remains as it would have left the factory in 1940.
Giving life to this 1940 Buick Special Series 40 Coupe is a smooth 248 cubic inch “dynaflash” straight 8 engine. This is an overhead valve powerhouse that utilizes five main bearings, aluminum rockers, and mechanical valve lifters. A respectable figure of 107 horsepower is enough to move this classic beauty with grace. Sending power to the rear wheels is a three-speed manual transmission that can be controlled with a column shifter, a rarity in the contemporary world. The current owner reports all maintenance has been done and is up to date, including the brakes being redone.

The Ford Model A is best known as the successor to the car that put the world on wheels. It was the first Ford to use the standard set of driver controls with conventional clutch, brake, and throttle pedals, along with a gearshift — unlike its predecessor, the Ford Model T. First produced on October 20th, 1927, the Model A was a great success among the populous with almost 5 million units being sold, ending production in March 1932. The survival rate of this fabled car is quite small, so to find a Model A in great condition, such as this 1930 Roadster pickup version we have for you, is an extremely rare find. Featuring an all-steel 1932 Ford shell, this particular model has received a complete restoration from the ground up. The Ford Flathead V8 engine has been rebuilt, and only a mere 5,200 miles were clocked after the build. With servicing up to date, you can find this meticulously maintained Ford Model A for sale in Bennettsville, South Carolina.
Colloquially known as the “Tin Lizzie”, the Ford Model T was the world’s first mass-produced, affordable automobile. This was the vehicle that made travel by car available to middle-class Americans. It was produced through an assembly line instead of individual handcrafting, which brought the price down from $780 in 1910 to $290 in 1924. Adjusted for inflation, it’s still an impressive $5000 in modern-day money. Of course, you don't get air conditioning or an infotainment system with Apple CarPlay, but for an almost 100-year-old car, the Ford Model T was truly a bargain for its time. Rightfully, the Model T was also named the most influential car of the 20th century and was also the most-sold car in history till 1972 before being surpassed by the Volkswagen Beetle. This particular coupe model has been restored from the ground up and presents you with an opportunity to own one of the most iconic cars in human history for sale in Chesterfield, Virginia.
Ford’s Model A had a tough act to follow, when it was introduced in 1927. You see, it was the intended successor of the wildly popular Model T, the car that mobilized millions of Americans and revolutionized automotive manufacturing. It’s never easy when you’ve got such a high benchmark to meet, yet the Model A did it. By 1930, when this 1930 Ford Model A came out, three million examples had been sold. Speaking of this particular car, it’s undergone a frame-off restoration, so you can really cherish this 94-year-old car and take it for a drive every now and then, too.
