83K Mile - 1947 Buick Special - Straight 8 - Frankman Motors Company - Walk Around/ Driving

1947 Buick Special- 83K Mile - Straight 8
In '47 the Buick Special returned with three models: a four-door sedan, a two-door sedanet, and a convertible. You can recognize this is a Special immediately by the beautiful extra chrome moldings on the sides.
Here we have an amazing example of post war car design and how they came out of a brief hiatus post WWII with a fresh design and remained a practical and handsome example of curvaceous 1940s styling. With a ride that Cadillac would have a hard time competing with.
Put a few minutes in behind the wheel of this gorgeous car and you will understand why the Buick Special was such a desirable family car!

That was our family car when I was a kid, many years ago. The memories!

[@raymondrysdyk8630]

I just love the old three on the tree..(:=()

My Dad's first Buick was a '46 Roadmaster. Great car. Bulletproof.

! Incredible !
The real and classic Buick 8 is alive and well.👍

[@maggs131]

What a gorgeous beast of a car. Smooth as silk. Thanks for taking us for a ride 👌

[@mariomartin7663]

Wow, how well taken care of that Buick is, I had a 1952 Buick in my country Cuba, a super excellent car. If you are selling that Buick I would like to have it.😉👍

[@dannyrojas.592]

Nice buick👌👍

In laws of a neighbor in Westchester, Ill, where we lived from 1949 to 1955 owned the car. I must have been seven when we moved there.The Vanderbilts would come to visit occasionally and I remember admiring the car specially the smooth flowing rear fenders and the way the tail lights were placed.
Westchester was a Chicago suburb built for war vets. Walter Baltis would not build garages because homes were more important. Dad paid $7000 for it and now it is worth almost $500,000 with the addition on the back. Google 1343 Newcastle Ave, Westchester. It looks like the day we sold it.

Lovely machine. A 1940s Buick/Olds/Pontiac is on my bucket list to own.

Que motor de arranque es compatible para es auto si le eliminas el 6 volts y lo conviertes en 12 voltios

[@mikedrown2721]

This is a Special not a Roadmaster Super

Thanks for the correction! Easy to get ourself into a rabbit hole during our research on cars of this era!

You need to adjust your side mirror.

[@garykreil5990]

I'm amazed that he didn't crash it, obviously doesn't know how to baby an older car.

[@maggs131]

Babying a car isnt caring for it or enjoying it. You want to take a car out on the road and do 6 mph you may as well leave it at home or better yet sell it

[@billhowes7464]

This body style looks more like a '40 or '41

[@kencarney6667]

Is it just my ears, or do I hear
a slight miss in the engine?

[@skipwine5487]

Noisey engine
