For Sale: 1948 Buick Roadmaster in Calimesa, California

Vehicle Description

I am the 3rd owner and the car is beautiful. I believe it to be the only factory French White 48 Roadmaster in existence. The only flaws are a couple of paint chips that can be easily taken care of by by painting the fender tops between the fender spears and the hood. They are barely noticeable but they keep the car from being flawless. One stone guard is scratched but I have a new one that is perfect. Tires are new. Runs great but it is a Dynaflow and reaches speed on inclines when it wants too but gets to speed on the flats in great time. Interior is beautiful. It may have been redone but It looks like an original material to me and looks like the proper stitching as well. I can't tell it from the original. Buick had several materials so I can't say for sure if this broadcloth is the same as original. Radio works but clock does not. It is a fine 74 year old car and gets unbelievable attention. The color is what makes this car stand out above all other 48 Buicks. Let me just say this car has been pampered for 74 years and is far too nice to be used as a daily driver. Daily drivers get dents and torn seats and stains in the upholstery that this car has avoided for 74 years. If a daily driver is what you are looking for, this car is probably not for you. This car needs to go to someone who will respect it as much as the previous owners have.
