Description

Price reduced! Buick 1937 straight 8 Series 40 NZ New with current COF and rego (can easily be changed back to WOF)- Would be great for a part time business.

This is part of New Zealand's history. This is the car that was used in the Bulls bank robbery in 1946, in which a sub machine gun was used. Full history and newspaper cuttings available. It features in a book about Bulls history. (photo attached) We have used this as a wedding car on Waiheke Island (hence COF) it has been really reliable and popular car. A real head turner! Most of the interior is original and is in great condition for its age. Drives well and has been really reliable. Converted to 12 volt. Sadly selling as we are moving. View on Waiheke Island.
