Guest 47Roadmaster Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 (edited) Here is my '47 Roadmaster. It is unrestored with original paint and upholstery It was purchased new by a recently discharged Sailor. His girlfriend had left him during the War and his new Buick became his love. He took great care of her and that care shows today. It was always garage kept in the Pittsburgh area. She was retired in the mid 1950's and only brought out for an occasional ride around the block with the neighbor kids in the summer. Only 80K miles. This story comes from one of those kids.

Buicknutty Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Nice. The story is great to have, though I sure feel for that gentleman coming home to his lady, and she's not there for him.Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
