1956 Buick Roadmaster Riviera Coupe
In 1956 Buick raised the performance bar with all models capable of 110 mph. Buick’s top-of-the-line Roadmaster was offered in four body styles—sedan, Riviera sedan, Riviera coupe, and convertible. Minor design tweaks were made in what would be the last year that featured 1954 styling. The front of the Roadmasters featured dual bombsights, one in each fender, and a new grille emblem calling out the year and model. The “sweepspear” was now shallower and didn’t dip into the rocker panel as in past models. Roadmaster script was more prominently displayed, found on the front doors beneath the vent windows and on the trunk in block letters between vertical chrome strips. As the top-of-the-line Buick, the Roadmaster featured a number of luxurious items for the period as standard equipment.
