1932 Buick Series 80 Victoria

1932 Buick Series 80 Victoria, click picture to enlarge.

The 1932 Buicks were available in four different series, the 50,60,80 and 90. They were all straight 8 cylinders and had a fresh new look that appealed to the public, but unfortunately the public was not buying. The Great Depression of the late twenties and early thirties had slowed almost everything down to a standstill and people were just not able to buy much of anything. Buick's sales for 1932 dropped more than 50%.

The Series 80 had only two models, one of which was the handsome Victoria shown here in this picture. It was a five passenger traveler's coupe and had a 126 inch wheelbase and 113 horsepower straight 8 engine and a three speed transmission. It sold for about $1,540.
