We purchased it from a local gentleman who had too many projects and needed to let one go. The car was completely torn down and is now partly back together. The original chassis was swapped for an Art Morrison chassis, engineered to carry a Mast Performance 6.2L LS3 V8 and a 4L65E 4-speed automatic. The exterior is essentially finished in rich Rootbeer Brown with a contrasting Pearl roof, and the car runs and drives. Most of the parts needed to complete the build are included. Our in-house restoration shop is ready to finish it, or you can take it home and complete the build yourself.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"font-semibold pb-0.5 text-xl leading-[40px] [&amp;:not(:first-child)]:pt-[21px] [&amp;_.underline]:underline-offset-[6px] [&amp;_a]:underline-offset-[6px]\">Engine &amp; Transmission<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"list-inside list-disc py-1.5 pl-6 text-sm [&amp;_ol]:py-0 [&amp;_ol]:pl-4 [&amp;_ul]:py-0 [&amp;_ul]:pl-4\">\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Mast Performance 6.2L LS3 V8 for modern, dependable power in a classic body<\/li>\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">4-speed 4L65E automatic transmission for smooth shifts and easy cruising<\/li>\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Art Morrison chassis engineered specifically for this LS3 and 4L65E combination<\/li>\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Runs and drives today<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"font-semibold pb-0.5 text-xl leading-[40px] [&amp;:not(:first-child)]:pt-[21px] [&amp;_.underline]:underline-offset-[6px] [&amp;_a]:underline-offset-[6px]\">Exterior<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"list-inside list-disc py-1.5 pl-6 text-sm [&amp;_ol]:py-0 [&amp;_ol]:pl-4 [&amp;_ul]:py-0 [&amp;_ul]:pl-4\">\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Rich Rootbeer Brown paint that highlights the Buick&#8217;s classic 1950s lines<\/li>\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Contrasting Pearl roof for a striking two-tone look<\/li>\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">All bodywork completed<\/li>\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Exterior essentially finished, so the hardest and most visible work is already done<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"font-semibold pb-0.5 text-xl leading-[40px] [&amp;:not(:first-child)]:pt-[21px] [&amp;_.underline]:underline-offset-[6px] [&amp;_a]:underline-offset-[6px]\">Interior<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"list-inside list-disc py-1.5 pl-6 text-sm [&amp;_ol]:py-0 [&amp;_ol]:pl-4 [&amp;_ul]:py-0 [&amp;_ul]:pl-4\">\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Full interior included with the car<\/li>\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Interior will require reupholstering, a chance to finish the cabin in the style you choose<\/li>\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Part of the ongoing build and ready for the next stage<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"font-semibold pb-0.5 text-xl leading-[40px] [&amp;:not(:first-child)]:pt-[21px] [&amp;_.underline]:underline-offset-[6px] [&amp;_a]:underline-offset-[6px]\">Suspension &amp; Chassis<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"list-inside list-disc py-1.5 pl-6 text-sm [&amp;_ol]:py-0 [&amp;_ol]:pl-4 [&amp;_ul]:py-0 [&amp;_ul]:pl-4\">\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Art Morrison chassis swap in place of the original chassis<\/li>\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Chassis engineered to handle the new LS3 powertrain<\/li>\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Drilled-and-slotted front disc brakes for modern stopping power<\/li>\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Brakes that match the car&#8217;s newfound performance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"font-semibold pb-0.5 text-xl leading-[40px] [&amp;:not(:first-child)]:pt-[21px] [&amp;_.underline]:underline-offset-[6px] [&amp;_a]:underline-offset-[6px]\">Additional Info<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"list-inside list-disc py-1.5 pl-6 text-sm [&amp;_ol]:py-0 [&amp;_ol]:pl-4 [&amp;_ul]:py-0 [&amp;_ul]:pl-4\">\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Purchased from a local gentleman who had too many projects and needed one gone to finish the rest<\/li>\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Car was completely torn down and has been partly reassembled<\/li>\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">New fuel pump installed during our work on the project<\/li>\n<li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\">Majority of the parts needed to complete the build are included<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&#8211;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1954 Buick Special This 1954 Buick Special is an exciting work in progress that gives you a big head start on a truly unique build.
