Quote from Original Literature

1954 Buick Sales Brochure
The sparkle of the 1954 Buick Super Convertible (Model 56C) extends well beyond its gay and graceful dress. It's in the action of its great 182-hp V8 engine of 8.5 to 1 compression ratio. It's in the richness of its magnificent ride. It's in the very quality of its Buick craft mans hip - the solidity of it heavier frame, the added jewels in the electric clock, the horizontal sweep of its new Redliner Speedometer. Literally, the Super is the superlative value in the medium-price field.
