1949 Buick Roadmaster Convertible

28 January 2022

Rainman 1949 Buick Roadmaster Convertible amongst the top results at the Bonhams Scottsdale 2022 sale

The 1949 Buick Roadmaster Convertible, the ‘third character’ in the 1988 multi-award-winning road drama motion picture Rain Man, was offered directly from the ownership of Dustin Hoffman. It sold for $335,000 to a telephone bidder, setting a new world record for a Roadmaster convertible — a typical 5x condition value that a prominent movie car can achieve at auction.
