This is a 1949 Buick Super 50 Convertible that was purchased 8 years ago from the San Diego Car Collection via
Ebay. The car had undergone a complete frame-off restoration in the late 1990's in Nevada before the museum
purchased the car. I have all the original paperwork, pamphlets and photos of the restoration. I wanted to keep the
car as original as possible so that it was not butchered. What started as a "I'll just fix this a little" turned
into a complete obsession with making sure everything on the car was done correctly. The 12 volt conversion was
done using Runtz from Speedway on all the instrument clusters as not to burn them out. The engine was removed and a
plate from bendstens was applied to marry the 700R4 to the original motor. There was a lot of additional upgrades
here from Lokar as none of the kickdown cables, brackets or shift levers were hobbled together. I wanted it all
done right so it was. No expense was spared on the car. While the motor came out I figured I might as well do all
