Description
Buick’s 1948 models remained largely the same as those offered in the two previous renditions of its post-war catalog. There was, quite simply, no reason to change: Buyers continued to bust down the doors at Buick dealers, and the design that had originally been created in 1942 (and had only been facelifted since) continued to appear striking and modern.

Buick’s 1948 models remained largely the same as those offered in the two previous renditions of its post-war catalog. There was, quite simply, no reason to change: Buyers continued to bust down the doors at Buick dealers, and the design that had originally been created in 1942 (and had only been facelifted since) continued to appear striking and modern.
As one would expect of a top-of-the-line Buick in this ritzy era, the car is equipped with a power front bench seat (with later seatbelts for driver safety), power windows, power brakes, an AM radio, clock, heater, and carpeted floor mats. The Roadmaster provides a remarkably comfortable space in which to cruise about town thanks to these amenities, but also its supple suspension and favorable driving dynamics. The car’s chrome-ringed odometer presently indicates fewer than 60,100 miles at time of cataloguing.
The car is powered by its correct 320-cubic-inch Dynaflash straight-eight cylinder engine and the new-for-1948 Dynaflow automatic transmission. Perhaps due to its newness, the Dynaflow remained a particularly rare selection by new buyers; this particular Roadmaster surely benefits from enhanced collectability because of this feature. The car’s period-correct aesthetic is nicely rounded out by a set of color-matched factory hubs wrapped in wide whitewall tires, with the rear pair tucked behind a set of fender skirts.
