Australia also had right hand drive cars built. Some time, not sure when it was required by law to have right hand drive.

She starts on the throttle - there's no button.

Just bought a 1952 Buick Roadmaster with Dynaflow

I guess you can't read!

It's a South African import. :)

Not sure what what you had in mind? where would this have applied? Japan perhaps?

@@adoreslaurel yes , Japan

@@UfoDan100 Glad they did not, We have to have a few RHD countries, only country that did that was Sweden, LHD cars driving left side until they caught up with the rest of Europe, Always wondered why Americans kiss left handed?, guess it's because of where the steering wheel is placed in the car, I am not going to explain that, look at some old US movies and you just might be bright enough to figure it out.

America's Right side of the road dates back to horse & wagon days. Some U.S. cars in the early 1900s were RHD as they wished to emulate British ones, notably Pierce-Arrow, whom began as a wire birdcage maker before being a luxury car until 1936.

I was about to make the same comment. I’ve never seen a right hand drive 50s Buick!!

It cool at all!

She was already warmed up. No way would I rev her cold.

I believe it was originally called Venetian Blue but best to check.

My parents had a ‘52 in that color. It was blue in the sunlight and looked black on a cloudy day. As a young child I used to be afraid of that grille. It looked like teeth.

hyzercreek it would probably die if he didn't rev it, gotta get the fuel flowing

She was already warmed up. I agree what you say about the fuel though. You did just need to lightly pop the throttle to make sure she caught.

I live in Alberta, Canada & someone in the Province is selling a bunch of 1952 Buick Roadmasters for $600 I think. The cars need to be restored of course, then I keep telling myself that a car such as this isn't a "daily" driver

They can indeed be used as daily drivers. They are totally reliable cars.

I'm sure I'd drive on the wrong side of the road and crash if I drove a left hand sided steering wheel car.

@@kfl611 To each his own, crossing the road is bad enough, rermembering which side the traffic is coming at you.

The Roadmaster is the really big one - larger engine than the Super.

@@andrewcollier1093 same size I believe and by my friends 56, I thought the engines were about the same. at the same time she had this, another friend bought a 55 Buick Special and this 56 Super was a lot bigger and the engine sounded bigger also

Actually, it was the Roadmaster that was almost a Cad. The Super was their less expensive big C body car, abd the B body Special was their base model car. Smaller, but still a big car.

In 53, they started using the same engine as the Roadmaster, but with a 2 barrel carb instead of a 4 barrel.

@@angelitavaldellon7600 not a DeVille but a series 62

They both used GM's C body.
