Not inline but that it one awesome looking car! Never heard of a "Limited 756" & don't recall ever seeing a '50's Buick like that. What makes it so rare/desirable? GLWS!

 

756 is the model number for the 700 series 1958 limited convertible
only 839 were built

most of them are nowadays residing in sweden, i saw nine of them at a car show there



for only $13.00 more you could buy the convertible instead of the 4 drs hardtop riviera model
and the 2 drs coupe was even cheaper than the sedan...?

 

double checked the info above with another book:



slighty different pricing, but still almost the same difference between the 3 models and the 2 drs coupe is still cheaper compared to the 4 drs sedan
there was also a "stripped chassis" limited available for 1958
model number 701
only 72 were produced

i think those were used to built hearses and ambulances?

heres a 1958 limited ambulance:

 

Thx!

 

This car is the longest Buick made . It has a 127.5 inch wheel base . When parking it takes up 1.5 parking spaces in length lol When going around a corner , it never ending lol If you ever see one in person pictures of these really don’t do it justice. I have attached a picture of the car parked beside a friends Honda CRV to give you a better idea of scale The other notable fact is that both RM Sotheby’s and Mecum in their write ups on these cars advise there maybe 20 left in existence today. I’m not sure if this number is a global or North American number.

 

I was talking about 1958, it’s the longest Buick built in 1958

 

More to read on the model for anyone interested

 

Thanks - Learned something. Again, very neat car. Super sleek how that rear lower quarter blends w/the bumper & wheelwell trim. Can't imagine restoring one. GLWS.

 

every model year has at least one car thats the longest buick of that year
the mid 70s Electras are the all time longest standard production buicks: 233.4 inches
1958 limited is over 6 inches shorter

 

Wouldn’t want to run a yellow light with that lol pretty much guaranteed it’s turning red before that locomotive gets through lol

 

“Diamonds on velvet “ grill. Boy do I remember sitting there forever polishing those bad boys! Lol

Beautiful car! GLWS

 

160
thats the magic number for the 1958 buick Fashion-Aire Dynastar grille

 

...I remember the '58 Limited well, its size dominated whatever space it occupied. The ones that came thru our (upscale) dealership also had Air Ride. '58 was pinnacle of Harley Earl's tribute to chromed opulence. Yours is a fine example of that period in Buick history. Good luck with your sale!...

 

Thank you
