The Detroit Showroom is proud to offer a super rare and 1947 Buick
Woodie Wagon! While Buick's postwar lineup was still based upon its
prewar designs, the mildly revised 1946-1948 models garnered very
strong public favor nonetheless. With the proven overhead valve
Dynaflash straight eight, fully coil-sprung suspensions, and Harley
Earl-supervised styling with fade-away front fenders, broad
grilles, and remarkably restrained bright-trim accents, these cars
remain collector staples today. During that era, the Series 50
Super Estate Wagon, with handsome Woodie bodywork by Michigan's
Ionia Manufacturing Company, topped Buick's mid-tier offerings with
a factory price of nearly $2,600. Just 2,036 of them, including
five for export, were produced for 1947. This Woodie is a Series
50; Model 59, 110-hp, 248-cid OHV Dynaflash inline eight-cylinder
engine with three-speed column-mounted manual transmission. The
rarity of this vehicle in todays market makes this beautiful Buick
a real gem. The history of this Buick has left its footprint in
automotive history and will always be a high value vehicle. The
wood accents on the vehicle are in pristine condition and have no
splits and show very well. Every bit of this Buick screams
nostalgia and has an unforgettable presence and it belongs in a
museum or your very own private collection. This is a once in a
lifetime chance to own a piece of automotive history. For more
