Qty:

The fifth in Oxford's 1:87 scale series of American classic cars sees our Buick Special Convertible registered in South Dakota in 1936. The stately open topped two-door model is decorated in a rich dark blue with beige folded down hood and a dark red interior with brown dashboard. Exterior trim is finished in contrasting silver, including bumpers, grille and door handles. The fashionable whitewall tyres surround the body coloured wheels and silver hubcaps. A spare wheel is housed behind the offside front wing, contained in a cover painted blue to match the body colour..

The real car, seating 4-5 people, was launched in 1936 and sported a 3.8L engine and 3-speed manual gearbox. An interesting detail is the positioning of the number plate, especially on the back, where it is housed on a protruding bracket - quite vulnerable to damage one would surmise.
