1937 Buick Series 60 Century Convertible Coupe

  • Coachwork by Fisher
  • Engine Number: 316910
This 1937 Buick Series 66C Century Convertible Body by Fisher is powered by a 320.2 cubic-inch, overhead valve inline eight-cylinder engine with two-barrel Stromberg carburetor and delivering 130 horsepower at 3,400 RPM. This was Buick's most potent engine paired with its shortest platform, giving the Century the best performance of any car in its price class.

Buick built 787 examples of its 2-door convertible coupe in 1937, against more than 30,000 Series 60s and a year that saw the brand supply over 227,000 cars.

An exhaustive search led George Holman to this car in Washington State in 2015. It has since been carefully gone through on the mechanical side and made to run in a characteristically reliable form.
