Luxury cars of the ’20s and ’30s are beyond difficult to find; whether wrecked, smelted to make planes and tanks for WWII, rusted away, or converted into hot rods, there just aren’t many to fix up anymore. That’s why we’re lucky to have this 1936 Buick Special Series 40, from SeriousWheels.com, which the seller describes as “flawless.”

The seller is proud of the vehicle, as evidenced by his puffed-up exultation of the rebuild. He claims “no expense was spared” on the way to the showroom, and that exacting detail was paid to “every nut and bolt.”

Furthermore, the car was completely disassembled and then rebuilt to its factory specifications. For the 1936 year, this would make it a 233 ci motor putting out 100 horses, with a 118-inch wheelbase. The outside looks terrific, with a cool gray/black two-tone paint job polished to mirror-like perfection.

Moving to the interior, the seller is quite proud of this, as it is simply brilliant. Woodwork, an inlaid clock inside the glove box door, and grille-like chrome accentuate the car with great style and grace. As the seller states, it really does seem like it’s sitting on the Buick lot in 1936.

The stately car houses a period-correct, green-colored, inline-8 engine under its split hood. According to the ad, it runs and delivers the smooth, high-class ride you would expect of such a classic car.

At a price of $29,995, is all that wood, metal, and severe effort worth it? Given the age, condition, and elegance that comes in the package, perhaps it is. Let us know what you think.
