This 1956 Buick Special was an actual barn find and its now a little more special than most-with a $900,000.00 price tag to prove it. From any angle the paint and finishing features are perfection. Any bumps in the asphalt are smoothed out with the Ride Tech coil-overs and cornering more controlled with the Corvette C6 suspension package. The twin turbo 401 Nailhead engine is now an exotic work of art that generates 800 horse power. The engine is coupled to a Bowler 4L80E automatic transmission that will make certain the shifts are precisely on point.
