Buick introduced its first 6-cylindre car in 1914 and for a period in the 1920s the range would consist entirely of sixes. For 1924, the company introduced a strengthened chassis and axles, 4-wheel brakes, and a detachacble cylinder head. 1924 was also the final year of Buick's base-model four.
Buick introduced a new, overhead-valve engine for 1925, displacing 1919 cubic-inches and offering 50 horsepower, while the larger Master Six came with a 255 cubic-inch 70 horsepower unit. The duo was restyled for 1926 and given larger engines of 207 and 274 cubic-inch respectively and continued almost unaltered throughout 1927. Distinguishable features between the two included a slightly rounded radiator edges. The Fisher bodied cars had dual swage moldings.
The 1929 Series 121 was powered by a new 310 cubic-inch six-cylinder engine and rested on a 121-inch wheelbase platform. Six factory body styles were offered including a close-coupled sedan, sedan, coupe, special coupe, business coupe, and sport roadster. The 121 Series included cowl lamps mounted on the surcingle's, side cowl ventilators, new type instrument panel, and an adjustable front seat.
All 1929 Buicks had walnut interior trim and a new molded-rubber steering wheel.
This Series 121 Master Six Close Coupled Coupe is finished in Arrete Red with Black fenders and roof with a taupe fabric interior. It rides on wooden artillery wheels, has coachlights, and a trunk with rear mounted spare. It has an older restoration which presents well in modern times.By Daniel Vaughan | Jun 2017
