- Buick made less than 69,000 of them in 1950, so it is rare.The engine is astraight 8 and runs great.The Transmission is a Dynaflow 3 speed automatic and has recently had an overhaul, The body is in.
- Buick’s Dynaflow Drive has always been the smoothest of all automatic transmissions – since all powerthrust from engine to wheels is transmitted through a cushion of oil. In other automatic transmissions the emphasis has been on acceleration rather than smoothness.
Dynaflow was the trademark name for a type of automatic transmission developed and built by General Motors' Buick Motor Division from late 1947 to mid 1963. The Dynaflow, which was introduced for the 1948 model year only as an option on Roadmaster models, received some severe early testing in the M18 Hellcat tank destroyer, which were built in Buick's Flint, Michigan assembly plant during. Logitech g13 new. Nearest priority postboxes.
1949-01-01SOME of the machine operations that are required in the manufacture of the components of the dynaflow transmission are described here.
To meet the rigid requirements for accuracy at a sufficiently high volume to reach the projected schedule, it was necessary to purchase 493 new machines, and to relocate, retool, and, in some cases, rework 180 machines. In addition, a large amount of foundry equipment, forge and sheet metal presses, and automatic screw machines was retooled for producing dynaflow parts.
