Nice presentation!!!

Great video! Love these old cars, and your knowledge and narration are superb!

Incredibly Beauuuutiful Cars!❤️

Very interesting story about the original owner of the 1947 Buick, who bought it new at age 15 and kept it to the day he died.

Really enjoyed this vid. Those Buicks speak volumes about the extraordinary car manufacturing abilities of American automakers. There's not a car on the road today that thrills my eyes and captures my imagination the way those Buicks do. Thank you for doing this for KZread. I own a 77 Buick Regal V8, coupe, 350cc and have owned it for 42 years. People admire it wherever I go around town on the weekends.

Very nice buick car my father drived this car in 1966 in india

Good job man plus you tell people how to stay in shape

…wonderful video presentation, Nick!!… …having been born into a Buick family in’54, I well recall seeing all three of these beauties gracing the avenues and boulevards of my hometown… …my Grandfather, Clifford, Senior, was a bank founder who owned a ‘47 Roadmaster…and my Father, Cliff, was a civil attorney; but was a fan of what I call “stealth hot rods”… seemingly mild-mannered family sedans with a throaty V8 under the hood… …your accent is quite distinctive…are you from the area around Newcastle upon Tyne???… …cheers, Buck and best withes to Brookway!!…👀🆒👍🏼😎

Beautiful story on 47.

Extra Nice

The only Buick model that had the nail head V8 motor in 1953 was the top of the line Skylark all the other models had the straight eight. The V8 nail head became available in other Buick models only in 1954.

Ps. Still have 53 roadmaster woody wagon since high school in 69. You can pry it from my cold dead hands.

What amazing cars.

Nice's!

My personal favorites are 49 53 and 56. I have multitudes of each year. Love the dynaflow, but silent first on pre war fantistic. Hope future generations save this detroit iron. Have my doubts

Ahhhh, no.... When GM came out with the first OHV V8, they put into the two top lines: Cadillac and Oldsmobile. Buick was number 3, not 2.

I believe the content provider is correct. Buick was 2.

Dagmars, not dragmars. Named after Dagmar, an early TV personality in the 1950s.

I’m selling my 53’ Buick tomorrow. I’m having second thoughts after seeing that beautiful red paint job. How can I tell the buyer I’ve changed my mind??

I'd keep it, if I were you. Seller's remorse can be a painful thing.

Gosh videos like this really bother me. Such beautiful cars deserve to be accurately represented and frankly so many of the "facts" that you provided in this video are flat out incorrect. For example, the three port holes on the '56 doesn't mean "it has more power" it means it's the Special model which is the baseline model for that year. And the car didn't "still run the 322", the nailhead was introduced in 1953, the previous years having the straight 8. I just don't understand why anyone would make a video without even a five minute google search to verify the information before putting it up on youtube? This is the last video I'd recommend to anyone wanting to know the history of post war Buicks.

I owned a 1953 Buick Special for about 8 years. I bought it in 1960 and literally cried when I sold it. It was was the most dependable car I've ever owned. It was a straight eight Dynaflow and used a 6V electrical system. My dad, who was very knowledgeable of the cars of the period told me that when Buick was switching over to the V8 they still had a large supply of unfinished straight eight blocks around that were aged for years in stock. An aged cast iron block is very stable and that's why the engine was so good. Most of the 53' V8's had aluminum bearings that were troublesome, but the old stright eight was as reliable as they come. Since 53' was the first year of the V8 some bugs needed to be worked out but it eventually turned out to be one of the best V8's around. I liked the valve arrangement. The combustion chamber was hemi-shaped. You seldom see any 1953 Buick straight 8 Specials. Being the lowest priced model in the series, they econimised on the body and most rusted all to hell. That's why I had to sell mine. If it had a better body I'd still be driving it!
