When the Buick Roadmaster line was first introduced in 1936, it was available in two different body styles: a four-door sedan and a four-door convertible. 1064 units of the Buick Roadmaster convertible phaeton were produced as part of the first generation of vehicles, each of them priced at $1,565. At the same time, Buick parent company General Motors was selling a similar model in the similarly regarded Cadillac line, which was priced anywhere between $2,745 and $7,850. This made the Buick Roadmaster convertible option a bargain-priced vehicle in comparison.
The convertible option for the Buick Roadmaster model remained a part of the line throughout its original seven-generation run from 1936 to 1958. Throughout the changes in design and styling that the Buick Roadmaster was subjected to, there was always a comfortable, visionary way to incorporate the convertible aspect into each model, consistently delivering a sophisticated yet affordable vehicle.
