Vehicle Detail

Up for Auction is my 1963 Buick Riviera. This car is originally from California. This is a very nice driver and would not take a whole lot to make it a show car. The car sat for many years in CA, and was brought back to life a few years ago, with a complete engine rebuild. It also has a brand new headliner, upholstered dash and front / rear seats, brakes, etc.. The car runs and drives perefectly and can be driven anywhere, with confidence. It has power windows, seats, antenna, and steering. Also has tilt steering wheel. The original BUICK radio is still in the car. The AC does work and is original to the car. The power front seat is inconsistent and may need looking at. The speedometer does not work (probably needs a new cable). I am re-listing only becuase the last winning bidder never even contacted me. If you have no bidding history, I will not sell to you unless you call me. All serious bidders should call me anyway, you need to be confident in your purchase. Call: 865-776-7833 Some new additions: New Fan Clutch New Water Pump New Fan Shroud New Thermostat New Oil Temp Sender New Hoses / Belts (with spares) New Hood insulation New rear view mirror New Door thresholds New Upholstery, dash cover, headliner Triple chromed rear bumper included but not installed new rear tailight chrome housings many other small parts, decals, etc As far as a driver, you can't beat this car. It has a 401 Nailhead, all original numbers matching car. Original color was blue and has been painted black. There are some surface rust bubbles on the rear quarter panels, the left rear window area and one on the trunk. The undercarriage of the car is solid. The gas tank has been cleaned and is perfect. I will include all records, receipts, manuals, car cover, original parts, etc. There are boxes to come with it. This car is a sleeper and has started to show it's increase in value. I'd keep it, but I am about to inherit my father's 1st car, which I MUST make room for. TERMS; $500 NONREFUNDABLE DEPOSIT DUE AT AUCTION END (I do this b/c last bidders never even contacted me). BALANCE DUE WITHIN 7 DAYS OR VEHICLE PICK UP, WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. PREFERRED METHOD OF PAYMENT IS CASH IN PERSON, BANK TO BANK WIRE TRANSFER OR CERITIFIED BANK FUNDS. VEHICLE PURCHASED "AS IS" NO REFUNDS OR WARRANTIES IMPLIED. Here is the Data plateSome people have asked about the data plate. I took a picture of it, but I don't think you'll be able to read it online, so here is what it says: Buick by General Motors Corp O6D Flint, Michigan Style- 63-4747 FB37839 BODY PAINT TRIM - 788J2 PP ACC D S7 I6 N2 U7 This Car Finished With Acrylic Laquer Body By FISHER To answer some of your questions: Both the engine and transmission have been re-built professionally in CA.
