• 1 of just 5 known surviving examples of the original 69 built
• The most expensive and rarest Series 50 factory body style offered in 1932
• Desirable dual-windshield model with rear double stacked enclosed spare wheels


The 1932 Buick Series 50 Sport Phaeton is a rare and elegant open-top automobile that embodies Buick's transition into the luxury market during the early 1930s. Offering an equal blend of performance, comfort, and styling, a total of four series were offered, each with its own set of body styles. Positioned toward the top sat the Series 50, which could be ordered with five different body styles. The most expensive and rarest factory body style of them all, would be this Sport Phaeton, as just 69 examples would be built. Even more scarce today, it is believed this is one of just five known surviving examples.

Having been in the Passport Collection's portfolio for a number of years now, this ultra-rare 1931 Buick Series 50 Sport Phaeton with its dual windshields wears an older restoration that displays charming signs of patina. A visually striking, short wheelbase automobile, it is finished in a gold and green livery with eye-catching Kelsey-Hayes wire wheels painted in a light green
