追加: 2026-05-22

[00:00:07]1940 Buick Super five-passenger coupe here at Unique Specialty & Classics. So, this would be a model number 56S.

[00:00:17]Cool two-tone paint done on this with the black and red combo.

[00:00:22]Fender skirts.

[00:00:24]Underneath the hood, Fireball inline eight-cylinder.

[00:00:29]That should be 248 cubic inches.

[00:00:33]Take a look at the chrome on the front bumper.

[00:00:36]Great looking grill, headlight bezels, driving lights.

[00:00:41]And as you can see, paint has a nice shine to it. You may find an imperfection here or there. I noticed there's a little kind of blister in the red spot up there on the bright work on the hood, but overall, this thing is a head-turner.

[00:00:58]Glossy paint. Check out the still pictures.

[00:01:01]You're going to be able to see the underside, interior, engine bay, trunk, car from every angle.

[00:01:16]And of course, you can call us 507-386-1726.

[00:01:20]I love these dished in polished wheel covers.

[00:01:27]Red steel wheels, wide whitewall radial tires. What a cool look on this coupe.

[00:01:33]Let's take a look down the passenger side.

[00:01:36]I'm not noticing any major nicks, dings, or scratches. It does have a little bit of the protective film that has been added. You can kind of see the seam of it right there in front of those front fenders, so they won't get all chipped up. I did notice a little spot on the other side skirt on the driver side, and I'll show you that in a minute.

[00:01:55]Red interior.

[00:01:57]Great look.

[00:01:59]Custom kind of console, if you will, down below the dash.

[00:02:03]Aftermarket AM/FM cassette player, and that is working. We'll get around to the driver side, start it up, let's hear it run, take a peek underneath the hood.

[00:02:13]And if you stick around to the very end of this video, Jason's going to take it for a drive, show you how it goes down the road. Take a look at the chrome in the rear bumper bright work on the rear as far as the tail light bezels.

[00:02:26]Trunk handle and the Buick 8 designating that Fireball inline 8-cylinder. And again, you can see the paint shows well on the rear.

[00:02:37]Nice shine to it.

[00:02:39]Did notice there was a light, very light scratch in that fender skirt. I don't know if I can get it to show up. There you can kind of see it. Real light along there, but at the same time, look at the reflection in that black paint.

[00:02:54]Wow. All right. Still pictures, Unique Classic Cars, check them out. Look at the underside.

[00:03:00]This would have the twin carb setup.

[00:03:03]We're going to take a peek at that underneath the hood when we start it up.

[00:03:07]Uh there is an electric fan switch that is on the interior. I'm going to show you that. And uh that needs to be manually switched off when the key is turned off. It's wired up hot.

[00:03:18]Uh no shakes or vibration noted by the technician that looked at this. Brakes straight.

[00:03:24]Brakes are 70% in the front, 70% in the rear.

[00:03:29]Typical powertrain seeps on a car that's driven. This [clears throat] one, get in, turn the key, go out, have some fun. Did mention both kingpins show some wear.

[00:03:40]Let's take a look down the rest of this driver side. I haven't noticed any other major nicks, dings, or scratches. Tell you what, if you like these classic Buicks, whether it's a Special, Super, Roadmaster, go ahead and subscribe to our YouTube channel.

[00:04:07]It doesn't go up or down. Slides forwards and rearwards.

[00:04:13]All right, door panel.

[00:04:14]Continuing that black and red theme.

[00:04:18]Again, same with seating surface. That's obviously been redone in a nice shape.

[00:04:22]You're going to be able to see the rear seats or rear seat, I should say, in the still pictures. We have a louvered rear window. That's kind of cool.

[00:04:30]Headliner looking good.

[00:04:32]Visors in place.

[00:04:35]Two spotlights. I think we need to fire this up.

[00:04:40]All right, so we will turn the key.

[00:04:47]Oops, excuse me. Straight up and down is on.

[00:04:50]The push button is over here underneath the dash. You can see right there. It's a push button to start it. So, let's fire it up.

[00:05:01]Fires right up.

[00:05:03]Now, right here is the fuel pump.

[00:05:08]Going to turn that on.

[00:05:10]Auxiliary fan, we're going to turn that on.

[00:05:13]Then you have fog lights and overdrive.

[00:05:16]Those other two switches are.

[00:05:18]Make sure we're in neutral.

[00:05:23]Nice sounding car, too.

[00:05:26]All right, stereo. Let's get a station.

[00:05:28]It will come in here in a second.

[00:05:32]There's one.

[00:05:37]>> [music] >> Take a look at the dash. Pretty cool.

[00:05:47]Kind of got that '50s street ride.

[00:05:52]Cackle the exhaust to it.

[00:05:59]Door closes nicely. Let's take a listen.

[00:06:15]All right.

[00:06:16]We slip up to the front, of course, the hood releases on these.

[00:06:21]Just lever right here.

[00:06:23]Pops out.

[00:06:24]Then it has that kind of piano folding hood. Let me get a panel or two open. Let's check out that engine bay.

[00:06:32]All right, I got both panels open. So, we have an Edmunds custom intake manifold.

[00:06:38]There's that dual carb setup.

[00:06:40]Of course, inline eight as we mentioned earlier.

[00:06:55]As noted here, negative ground.

[00:06:58]And there is the battery right down here. So, it's still be a 6-V system. Battery disconnect when it's in between drives.

[00:07:11]Looking good, sounding pretty cool.

[00:08:45]It's a three on the tree manual transmission.

[00:08:52]Nice rumble to this car, makes it even more fun. The battery's charging over halfway on the gauge.

[00:08:58]Those appear to be the original gauges.

[00:09:02]Battery on the top left, temperature on the top lower left.

[00:09:06]That's about a third of the way up.

[00:09:08]Speedometer working.

[00:09:10]Speedometer says 40 miles an hour, that might be correct.

[00:09:15]The fuel gauge shows almost full. Oil pressure is showing 45 PSI.

[00:09:22]Down below we have a Sun Super Tach tachometer mounted to the column.

[00:09:29]That is reading that appears to be reading high. It is reading.

[00:09:34]Down below the dash, Super Because it's a Buick super.

[00:09:41]Beautiful steering wheel.

[00:09:49]Nicely reupholstered bench seats.

[00:09:52]Door panels.

[00:09:55]The red and black interior reminds me of a 50's diner.

[00:10:00]Let's go to second gear.

[00:10:02]From the traffic circle.

[00:10:04]The brakes are working as they should.

[00:10:09]I have not tested them, but we've even got spotlights on either side of this car.

[00:10:17]That's this lever is right here.

[00:10:23]Very smooth running, easy to drive car.

[00:10:28]Two doors, but we do have plenty of room in the back for some passengers.
