1942 McLaughlin Buick Special Sedanet

Published 2022-04-17
Very rare Canadian-built Buick from the final year of McLaughlin branded automobiles. Limited production due to the onset of WWII, this is body #26 out of what was likely less than a few hundred made that year, across all body styles.

    My dad is 86 and he said his first car was a Olds 98 4 door, he said it was a party wagon!

    Beautiful car. Love the finish. Is that a factory color?
  • Hi great video as usual. Ah . . . I must be missing something. Why so Special? Canadian built cars were mostly Junior models of their US kin. I thought this Special maybe a larger engine or more carbs or longer WB. Alas, it appears to be a Junior Buick Special. As today, any vehicle that's had say, the Mclaren treatment, oh my lord,, name your price. So I must have missed something. If so, please correct me.
