Neil Young’s 1948 Buick Roadmaster Hearse

Neil Young’s 1948 Buick Roadmaster Hearse | Julien’s Auctions



For fans of Neil Young, his 1948 Buick Roadmaster hearse looms large in his legend. In the early ’60s, Young and his early bands criss-crossed Western Canada in his hearse, dubbed “Mort.” The car carried Young down to Los Angeles where he found fame.

He later immortalized the car in the album (and song) “Long May You Run.” This Buick is an exact replica of the original Mort. Dubbed Mort II, Young has owned it since at least the early 1990s. Considering its place in Neil Young lore, its $31,250 sale price made it something of a bargain.
