What Year Is It?
I have seen some of the coolest cars ever built, and they were customized in ways that are no longer common. Take this 1955 Buick Special, for instance - so many modifications have been made to it that you would need a stock car beside it to pick them all out. This car demands attention, even from those who aren't Buick fans. It's hard to believe that the Tri Fives took off when there are cars like this with such gorgeous lines.
Let's start with the exterior modifications. The hood has been shaved of all emblems, and there's a custom cut and molded front bumper. The fenders have been custom-fitted with 1956 port holes, while the 1963 Pontiac Grand Prix door handles and 1954 Pontiac Chieftain rear bumper have been modified. Even the trunk lid has had the emblems and keyhole shaved. The interior features seats from a '67 Chevelle and a center console from a '64 Ford Galaxie XL 500.
Now, what powers this mean machine is a very well-built 496 Chevy Big Block that packs a punch. The motor is paired with a built 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission, and the power is delivered to the ground via a Ford 9” rear end. This car is so badass in person - you have to come see it for yourself!
We appreciate your interest in this fantastic vehicle, available in our showroom at 5626 Gravois Ave, St. Louis, MO, 63116. If you have questions, please call (515)-REVHEADS, and Damon will be able to help you. To see over 60 HD photos and a custom video of this 1955 Buick Special, visit www.revheads.com.
