Enclosed is some History about the model:Buick began the 1940s by changing its entire lineup and it paid off, as 311, 000 vehicles were sold. The Roadmaster had been the Series 80, but in 1940 became the Series 70 and for the first time shared the same wheelbase as the Century. Its body styles were shared with the Super. The new Series 80 had seating for six for all of the body styles offered and was commonly referred to as the Limited. The cars rode on a large 133-inch wheelbase that was once solely reserved for the Roadmaster. Above the Series 80 was the Series 90 which was similar to the Series 80 but rode on a large 140-inch wheelbase, had seating for eight, and were bodied with only closed coachwork.
