Created for the 1936 model year, the Century name indicated that the model reached a top speed of 100 miles per hour (160 km/h), considered very powerful for the time. Discontinued in 1942, the Century range left Buick's production lines in 1954. This Serie 60, which came between the Special and Super models, was available as a saloon, Riviera hard-top coupé, cabriolet and Station Wagon.

French in origin, this car was bought nearly 20 years ago by its current owner from a director in the film industry who used it for the films he produced. The car, stored under an awning, saw very little use and now boasts 11,000 kms, which appears to be the car's original mileage. The car has retained its original paintwork, which presents well. The interior has been redone in its original configuration. The mechanics are original and have been regularly maintained by the current owner. However, the chassis and floor need to be refurbished for optimum use of the vehicle.
This Buick Century Cabriolet represents a great opportunity to acquire a rare model on the French market, at an attractive price that will enable the future owner to envisage a concours restoration for this beautiful, spacious and comfortable cabriolet.
