My Dad had a '46 Roadmaster. Roomy and smooth riding. Shortly after he got it we drove to New York with my Mom and my aunt and me in the back. My Mom and aunt complained the whole trip about their feet being hot. Upon returning one of my uncles who worked at a Buick dealership checked it showed him that the heater, which was under the seat had been on the the whole time. It turned off and on with a knob like an outside faucet. I was fine I had the back seat to myself. Oh yes, this was in August 🤣🤣🤣. I loved that car 🚗❤️

Your experience in riding in car of the 1940s in very insightful. I was born in 1957 and I do have vague memories as a small child riding in cars of the 1940s and a 1936 Dodge that was still driven my people of my Great Grandparents age group up to about 1963. I have often wandered, particularly with regard to the width of the seats in the back, what size such as this 1947 Buick would be equivalent to a car of the 1950s, 1960s or the 1970s? can you contrast the quality of this ride of this 1947 Buick with the cars of these latter decades? Thank you for your post.

Nice car! I noticed that your 47 Super has a Dynaflow transmission which was introduced in 1948. 47 Buicks didn't have Dynaflows so it must have been retrofitted. I own a 48 Roadmaster and a 21,000 mile original 47 Super.

Back in the day, would have preferred this over the Caddy. Though they shared a similar body, I never really cared for the "pontoon" fenders on the Caddy. The smooth "flow through" fenders of the Buick are much more graceful & make it the best looking car of the era!

How'd you manage to get that beautiful 360 degree footage from about 2:25 until about the 3 minute mark? It could not have been from a passenger sitting in the front seat or the back seat.

The camera I use (GoPro Fusion) captures in 360 degrees, so you can select whichever viewpoint you want in post production editing and then create pans like that. Bit of a learning curve but a fun effect.

If memory serves me correctly, to start a Buick, you turned on the ignition & then you push the accelerator to the floor, this activates the starter. Buick kept this design through 1958. In the 1959 models they went to the conventional ignition key start.
