Arguably the most famous Buick nameplate of all time, the Roadmaster name can be traced back to 1931. Representing Buick's flagship between 1946 and 1957, this particular 1947 Buick Roadmaster Convertible is a fine example of what well-heeled buyers at the time were treated to. This car is a fine time capsule with most of its original fittings, including some interesting factory features. If you buy it, you'll be buying not only a fantastic classic car but also a great investment and slice of American automotive history.
This 1947 Buick Roadmaster Convertible is draped in a lovely yellow paint job, which showcases the bright hues that automakers adopted after the blacks of the Wartime era. The car looks to be well-cared, for example, sporting a brown convertible top and rolling on whitewall tires with red-striped hubcaps. At the front, you'll note the signature chrome grille, plus yellow fog lamps. Venturing aboard the four-seat interior of this 1947 Buick Roadmaster Convertible is like a trip back to 1947 – almost. The only modern amenity we spot is a new Kenwood CD player with Bluetooth, USB, and AUX connectivity choices. Everything else is period, from the original push-button radio in the dash to the nostalgic vintage gauge cluster and three-on-the-tree gear shifter. The current owner tells us that the seats are new. Furthermore, there's no heating or air conditioning as these weren't very prevalent in the late Forties. Of course, you could explore options from companies such as Vintage Air if you need these modern creature comforts.
The powerplant motivating this 1947 Buick Roadmaster Convertible is the sturdy Fireball Straight 8, which displaces 320ci. The current owner informs us that the engine sports dual carburetors from the factory, as well as a factory-fitted dual exhaust system. That means you should hear quite a bit of iconic 8 cylinder rumble and grumble as you motor along, shifting the 3-speed manual transmission via its steering column-mounted shifter. Another useful piece of trivia is that the engine and transmission are said to be original! Meanwhile, braking is provided by drums on all four wheels, so you've got ample stopping power, but you'll want to be a bit careful nonetheless - there's no ABS.

Ford’s third generation Mustang was introduced in 1979, and quickly became known as the Fox Body, due to it sitting on Ford’s Fox platform. Designed by Jack Telnack, the third generation came as a coupe, convertible and hatchback. Thankfully, it retained the rear-wheel drive layout, despite Ford considering making it front-wheel drive during its early development days. While the Fox Body wasn’t immediately a hit, it’s considered a nice modern classic ʼStang these days. If you’re a Fox Body fan or eager to see what the Fox is like, here’s a nice 1985 Ford Mustang GT for sale. The car has seen plenty of work to make it better than factory, and comes with just 2,000 miles on the clock after a comprehensive overhaul that includes its interior, exterior, and mechanical bits.
