1949 Buick Super Series 50 for Sale in IL

This 1949 Buick Super Convertible is a rare, highly original classic that perfectly bridges the pre-war elegance of the 1940s with the sleek styling of the coming decade. Finished in Bahama Blue with contrasting light blue interior, it features Buick’s signature Venti-Ports, a distinctive toothy grille, massive bumpers, and all original chrome trim that highlight the car’s formal presence. Inside, the largely original interior includes a round-gauge Art Deco dashboard, original Sonomatic radio, vinyl seating, power windows, and a neatly trimmed trunk with convertible boot. Under the hood, the 248 cubic-inch straight-eight engine delivers 125 horsepower through a three-speed manual column shift, providing lively performance and the classic smooth eight-cylinder sound. The car rides on period-correct H78-15 whitewall tires over red steel wheels and retains its original torque-tube suspension for a smooth, elegant ride.
