1947 Buick Roadmaster Convertible - We are pleased to be able to represent this absolutely incredible and likely the best 1947 Buick Roadmaster Convertible in the world. Designed by the great Harley J. Earl, this 1947 Buick Roadmaster convertible is a true 30,000 mile from new having lived its life in California, Washington and Arizona until its last home in Virginia.

The Buick came out of a 3 year complete restoration by a noted restoration facility last year for the collection of Harold “Sonny” Via who was a well respected collector of early American cars and some later. Prior to Sonny this beauty was owned for 37 years by a collector of very special, limited production cars, Stanley Jason.  Mr. Jason has now passed, but records indicate that he bought this Buick in California on the 9th of December 1984, which, by then, this Roadmaster had accumulated a mere 27,299 miles.  The prior owner was Frank Stagnitto from Danville, CA.  Mr. Stagnitto owned the car for many years.  Prior service records indicate that by February of 1966 it had accumulated just 13,717 miles since new.  This Buick is documented with 45 years of documentation. 

This was the last edition to Sonny Via’s stunning collection some of which had been with him for over 50 years. This Buick Roadmaster is well sorted and has not been show or out on the open road since the completion of its restoration. During the restoration every detail was a focal point down to the hand painted pinstripes on the wheels. When Sonny purchased the car it was said to be original and the milage was accurate from new showing just over 30K miles. The Buick will come with all photos and receipts from the restoration which exceeded $600K. This is your opportunity to have absolutely the finest numbers matching, low milage Roadmaster in existence.
