This 1940 Buick Series 50 Super Estate is a non-running project that is said to have been sold new by Howard Buick of Los Angeles, California, to Warner Brothers Studios, who owned the car until 1950.
It was last registered in 1961 and was last driven in 1985.
The car was moved to Oklahoma in 2008, at which point it was financed by the seller, who later repossessed the vehicle.
A 248ci Dynaflash straight-eight and a three-speed manual transmission are retained, and other features include wood body panels, a banjo-style steering wheel, an AM radio, a heater, and torn red upholstery with plaid seat inserts.
This Buick Super Estate project is now offered at no reserve with spare parts, a history of the car written by a previous owner, and an Oklahoma title in the name of the seller’s company.
