1950 Buick Sales Brochure
The 1950 Buick Special Deluxe Sedan - Model 41D - Big, bold and really budget-pleasing is this spacious 6-passenger Sedan with deluxe finish throughout. Visibility aplenty and generous luggage space under the afterdeck. Light in handling, sparkling in performance, a winner from start to garaging.

1950 Buick Special Deluxe Sedan Equipment

Like all Special models, the 1950 Buick Special Deluxe Sedan came very plain out of the factory. That lowered the base price to minimum – on the other side there was a long options list to put the model 41D on top of the low price field.

1950 Buick Special Deluxe Sedan Colors

1950 Buick Colors

Buick offered 17 main colors for 1950. Early Special models used colors of 1949 until Buick changed the production. Two-Tone paint was at extra cost and limited to certain color combinations. In this case, only the roof could be painted differently. Note: Color accuracy varies by computer/device settings and depends on the actual light.

(See complete 1950 Buick color chart for Duco Paint numbers and correct Two-Tone paints.)
