1983 BUICK RIVIERA CONVERTIBLE, EASY PROJECT, LOW MILES - This beautiful Riviera is one of 1,750 built in 1983. It had the highest sticker price of any GM car sold that year. This example has the 307 V8. This particular car was sold new in Houston, TX. It was shipped to me in WV over a year ago. Since that time, the following have been replaced: windshield, exhaust, bumper corners. Also installed Coker American Classic tires. This car has been sitting in the way since that time. Therefore, I have decided to cut my losses and let her go. Overall, it is a nice car that looks great. It has very nice paint and chrome, nice straight body. Interior is nice, but does have some imperfections: slight crack in the dash pad and the driver's seat bottom has been repaired at some time, nice job, but slightly lighter in color, carpet is very nice and the door panels are also nice for the age. The car drives, shifts and brakes fine; not sure about the cruise control or the A/C. The A/C may need charged, but the heat and defog work. The convertible top is in good condition. it has no tears and raises and lowers fine. The top does have some light staining which may scrub out. You don't even notice it from 10' away. The top boot is nice. Some of the items that need attention are: power antenna won't work; 6-way passenger seat doesn't move; the tilt works; power locks don't work; the right RR window will not raise or lower (relay, switch) - it just happened; the right hood hinge or prop rod needs replaced or adjusted, it hangs up a little when raising the hood. There may be other small issues that I am not aware of since I have not really drove it much. The car is really nice and solid underneath. There are no rust issues or paint work needed, only a little mechanical time will be needed to have a nice Riviera Convertible. Build sheet is "in-hand" along with the original manuals. I reserve the right to end the auction early; although it has not been listed for sale on any other website or publication. Car can be stored indoors for up to 30-days, but full pay is required in 7-days. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 304-261-1643.
