1965 Buick Riviera

401 V-8

Automatic

UP FOR BIDS IS A NICE 1965 BUICK RIVIERA. I PURCHASED THIS CAR ABOUT A YEAR AGO OFF ONE OF MY FRIENDS. I INTENDED TO DO A CUSTOM WITH THE AIR RIDE SUSPENSION BUT I LOST THE BUILDING THE CAR WAS IN AND NOW IT IS SITTING OUTSIDE. I'D RATHER SELL IT THAN LEAVE IT SIT OUTSIDE. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICTURES, THE DOOR HANDLES HAVE BEEN REMOVED AND BEEN FILLED IN. ALL I DID WAS PUT A THIN PIECE OF METAL BEHIND THE DOOR SKIN. NO PROBLEM TAKING BACK OFF TO MAKE IT STOCK. THE BODY ITSELF WAS IN PRIMER WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR. ALL I DID TO IT WAS SHAVE THE DOOR HANDLES AND BLOCK SANDED THE CAR.. THE BODY IS NICE & STRAIGHT AND IS READY TO PAINT. FACTORY COLOR ON THE RIV IS THE DARK BURGANDY.VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH FACTORY AIR(NOT SURE IF IT WORKS OR NOT ) AND POWER WINDOWS,ALL WINDOWS WORK. ENGINE IS THE FACTORY 401 V-8 WITH 54,000 MILES ON IT. MY FRIEND TOLD ME HE'S PRETTY SURE HTIS IS THE RIGHT MILES AND THE ODOMETER SAYS 54,000 MILES.CAR RUNS STRONG,NO ENGINE NOISE, AND THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS GREAT. I PUT A REBUILT CARB. ON IT AND IT SEEMS TO LOAD UP UNTIL IT WARMS UP.THERE ARE NEW DOUBLE LINE RADIAL WHITWALLS (HARD TO FIND LIKE THESE ) , NEW BRAKE LINES & GAS LINES. BOTH 2 PIECE FRONT BUMPERS HAVE BEEN RECHROMED & THE BACK BUMPER IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. INTEROR IS FACTORY BLACK VINYL. FRONT BUCKETS , BACK SEATS & DOOR PANELS ARE IN GOOD CONDITION. IT DOES NEED CARPETING , HEADLINER , AND PIECE THAT GOES IN THE BACK WINDOW. I HAVE ALL INSIDE & OUTSIDE TRIM WHICH ARE ALSO IN GOOD CONDITION. HEADLIGHT MOTOR WORKS AND CLAMSHELLS GO UP & DOWN. UNDERCARRIAGE,FRAME & TRUNK ARE REAL NICE. (CHECK PHOTOS). AS YOU CAN SEE IN MY DESCRIPTION OF THE CAR, I'M NOT THE PERSON WHO MAKES A CAR SOUND LIKE A MILLION BUCKS, I'M TRYING TO GIVE AN HONEST OPINION OF WHAT IT REALLY IS. IF YOUR LOOKING TO FIND A NICE 1965 RIVIERA AT A FAIR PRICE, THIS MAY BE THE ONE FOR YOU. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTION, PLEASE CALL ME AT 330-716-1501.PLEASE NO ( 0 ) FEEDBACK BIDDERS.
