THIS IS A SMOOTH SAILING 1996 BUICK RIVIERA SUPERCHARGED WITH OPENING MMON ROOF. MOTOR HAS BEEN GONE OVER WITH COMPUTER. ENGINE LIGHT SHOWED BANK ONE LEAN .AFTER FIXING TWO LEAKING CRACKED VACCUME LINES ENGINE LIGHT WAS CLEARED. JUST HAD A OIL CHANGE ,WHICH OIL IS CLEAR AND HAS BEEN MAINTAINED. ALSO NEW PLUGS AND WIRES WERE INSTALLED. INTERIOR WAS WIPED CLEAN AND EXTERIOR HAS BEEN WASHED AND WAXED.TAN LEATHER INTERIOR IS IN GREAT SHAPE .AS FAR AS I KNOW IT IS A TWO OWNER CAR BUT CANT PROOF. IM SELLING FOR AN ELDERLY MAN WHO HAD HIS LICENCE STRIPPED DUE TO ALZTIMERS . WHEN I PICKED UP THE CAR IT HAD NEW BELTS AND SEEMS A NEW TRANSMISSION OR AT LEAST A REBUILD YELLOW GASKET SHOWS . ALL AIR SHOCKS WORK ALONG WITH COMPREESOR AND RIDES TIGHT LIKE A CADDILAC. ALSO BREAKS ARE IN GOOD SHAPE AND ROTORS AND STEERING IS TIGHT ,DFOESNT PULL IN EITHER DIRECTION. THE ONLY CONCERN I HAVE IF I WERE TO PURCHASE IS THE SUPERCHARGER SEEMS TO HAVE A BEARING THAT IS NOW JUST MAKING SOME NIOSE. A NEW UNIT IS 600.00 MINUS CORE CHARGE FOR YOUR OLD UNIT .ONLINE CAN PROVIDE LINK TO TWO UNITS . SUPERCHARGER PROBABLY DOESNT NEED CHANGING YET BUT IS MOST LIKELY THE ONLY MAINTANENCE YOU WOULD HAVE TO DO IN THE NEXT TWO YEARS BESIDES A TUNE UP. BLOCK AND HEADS WERE INSPECTED BY A MECHANIC AND SCOPE AND MOTOR HAS NO MISSING OR INTERNAL ISSUES. NOTE :AFTRER ADDING A CAN OF SEA FOAM THE TICKING NOISE IN SUPERCHARGER IS 98% GONE AND RUNNING SMOOTHLY AS OF JULY 25TH ......................... ALL LINES AND POWERED UNITS WORK WELL.INCLUDING EVERTHING IN CAR IS POWERED SEATS RADIO CONTROLS ON STEERING WHEEL AND MIRRORS MOON ROOF AND SUCH. ALL BULBS HAVE BEEN CHECKED AND WORKING EVEN UNDER HOOD. THE BODY HAS 99.9 NO RUST EXCEPT TWO TINY MARKS ALONG BACK TRUNK LID AND THE DRIVERS DOOR AND PASSENGER RARE QUARTER HAS MINER DENTS DO TO A LIGHT SIDE SWIP. THE DENT IN PASSENGER SIDE WAS POPED OUT WITH A TIOLET PLUNGER AND HAS NO CREASES AND JUST NEEDS TO BE BUFFED OUT. THE DRIVERS DOOR CAN BE POPPED OUT IF THE INTERIOR PANEL WAS REMOVED AND THAN WOULD NEED A BUFFING THERE ARE DINGS HERE AND THERE BUT LOOK AT THE PICS ,THE CAR IN STILL IN GREAT SHAPE FOR BEING SIDE SWIPED YOU PROBABLY dont EVEN SEEN IN PICS . REMEMBER THERE IS NO RUST TO SPEAK OF EXCEPT A TIY SPOT NEAR TRUNK EASILY ACCESABLE ,A TOUCH OF COLOR AND NO RUST AT ALL ON BODY. THE FRONT BUMPER HAS A COUPLE OF CREASES BUT NOTHING SERIOUS.. THE WINDSHIELD HAS A 3 FOOT HAIR LINE LOW IN GLASS THE CRACK IS FROM DRIVERS SIDE TWO PASSENGER NON OBSTRUCTING IN VIEW. FOR ADDITION 130.00 I CAN HAVE IT REPLACED BEFOR CAR IS PICKED UP... THE TRIM IS LOOSE ON THE DRIVERS DOOR ALSO NEEDS SOME ADHESIVE. OVER ALL THE CAR IS IN GREAT RUNNING CONDITION AND JUST NEEDS SOME TLC AND SOME RIMS PERHAPS .INTERIOR BELIEVED TO BE A NON SMOKING ENVIRNMENT,HAS NO ODERS THER THEN THE FRAGRANCE ADDE. THE LAST ITEM OF ATTENSION IS THAT THE INTERIOR CARPET NEEDS A GOOD CLEANING AND HAS A STAIN ON THE PASS AND DRVR SIDE NEAR UNDER SEAT . LOOKS LIKE CAREMEL STAIN AND PROBABLY CAN BE STEAMED OUT . ALO THE PAINT NEEDS SOME SERIOUS BUFFING ,BUT WITH THE TWO HOUR HALF ASSED WAX JOB I DID IT BROUGHT BACK THE SHINE SO IM SURE A DETAILER CAN RESTORE FOR 100-175 DOLLARS. THIS IS A GREAT CAR FOR A NEW DRIVER FOR SOME SOUNDS AND STILL HAVE ROOM.. SUPER CHARGER WORTH 600. MOTOR 1000-1400-TRANS 800.00 MOON ROOF AND GLASS 700.00- DOORS 275 EACH- SEATS 500- TRUNK AND HOOD 700- RIMS 125 EACH. AS A MATTER IN FACT I COULDNT FIND A BUICK RIVIERA IN THE LARGEST OF JUNK YARDS NEAR MY LOCATION EXCEPT THE ONE EMPLOYEES SO ALL IN ALL THIS CAR HAS ITS VALUE EVEN IN PIECES {A COMPLETE SOUND SYSTEM IS AVAILABLE FROM DVD PLAYER TO WIRES TO 4 SUBS 12" TWO SETS DOOR SPEAKERS SUBS CROSSOVER ALRM BATTERY TERMINALS BATT CAPASITER ,,,,,JUST INQUIRE}650 RIMS ARE GOOD AND ONE TIRE IS BRAND NEW}.OH ALMOST FORGOT THE AIR CONDITION WORKS AND COMPRESSOR BUT YOU NEED TO TAP UNDER PASSENGER SIDE DUE TO A LOOSE WIRE ON BLOWER MOTOR SO THE BLOWER STARTS ,IVE INSPECTED ISSUE NO BIG DEAL COLD AIR .. .EASY FIX TESTED WORKING .POSSIBLE A LOOSE PLUG CONNECTION . THIS IS A SOLID DEAL AND A SOLID CAR SO ONLY SERIOUS BIDDERS ONLY ...................THANKS FOR LOOKING AND DREAMING ...................................................
