THE OVERVIEW Offerred for an appreciating new owner is this pristine rare classic 1982 Buick Riviera Convertible! JUST IN TIME FOR HOLIDAY GIFTING THIS IS A 10-DAY NO-RESERVE AUCTION ENDING SUNDAY DECEMBER 27TH 7PM PST.! Finished in the original brilliant white over maple red leather hides, this stunning and elegant example was just acquired from the original 90 year-old local owner. This blue license plate California car has been driven a mere 56,355 documented miles since purchased new at Smythe Buick in San Jose for almost $26,000! This thirty year-old American classic is rare indeed and even more difficult to find being one of only 107 cars produced with the 4.1 liter V6 engine with four barrel carb mated to 4 speed automatic transmission with overdrive.

PLEASE CALL 650-307-2251 FOR QUESTIONS, TEST DRIVES OR MECHANICAL INSPECTIONS THE BODY AND TRIM As I hope is articulated in the many photos here, the body and trim of this 1982 Riviera are in SPECTACULAR rust-free overall condition. The paint is gleaming and clean as are the trim and chrome of this garaged low-mileage California car. The rear plastic panel above the bumper is cracked and partially missing and there is a small dent/scrape on one fender along with the bumper slightly pushed in. THE INTERIOR The interior of this classic Riviera is in AMAZING NEAR-NEW condition overall! All gauges and controls work as they should including cold air conditioning! This is a beautiful and stately thirty year-old cockpit! THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE This 1982 Riv runs and drives EXTREMELY well and very smooth! LIKE BUTTAH ACTUALLY! The engine starts and runs beautifully, the transmission up and down shifts almost imperceptibly, the brakes are excellent with good pedal feel and the suspension is ultra smooth and quiet befitting a low-mileage American beauty!
