Agreed! All of the Roadmasters; '47 and '48, were terrific models with great color choices!

I loved all of GM's fastbacks of that era. They really stood out from the crowd.

Remember as a young kid in the mid 50s wandering some of the small car lots in south Mpls seeing these G.M fastbacks sitting there thinking they were sooo incredibly cool to look at and sit in.......at that time think you could buy one for less than $200 😏

Of all of the great Buick models this is by far my favorite.

All outstanding photos of two simply wonderful models. The colors, the overall execution make these two of DMs very best.

I passed on the Chevrolet because the color combo appears very similar to the Buick, which I have. Since I have a solid black JADA version of the Chevrolet, I don't feel I missed out on the DM version.
