Vehicle Detail
1965 BUICK RIVIERA ***NO RESERVE! HIGH BID BUYS THIS BEAUTIFUL CAR!*** This is a very nice, turn key car. Purchased from the original owners nephew in 1997. Stripped to bare metal & repainted in 2002. The paint work is very nice & still shines very well. The color is absolutely stunning! Electronic ignition, heads redone, mild cam & trans rebuilt with a mild shift kit. Newer water pump, master cylinder & battery. It runs strong! When sitting for a while it will leave a couple of spots on the ground from the power steering pump & oil pan. Newer flow master style muffler sounds great! The Odometer shows just under 31,000 miles. Less than 3,000 have been put on it since '97. I know prior to that the car had been stored in a garage for many years. So it may be correct. But I'm not sure. The body is straight & solid. All of the chrome & stainless moldings are original & in very good condition. Floor boards & frame are solid. New rear springs & shocks were installed last September. The interior is in nice original condition. The seats are in very good condition. Dash, door & rear side panels also are very nice. Carpet is getting dull & has a small tear on the driver side front by the kick panel. All 4 power windows work. The power seat motor works, but sticks on the right track. Maybe one of the cables needs to be replaced or the track greased & realigned. It's far enough back so it wasn't an issue for me & I never looked into it. The power antenna & original am/fm radio work. The tuner & volume give a little static when changing stations or adjusting volume. The clam shell headlamp motor has been removed & needs to be rebuilt. The clam shells open and close manually very easily. This is a great car! I truly hate to sell it. But I have too many cars & need the space. So I've listed it with No Reserve at an extremely fair starting price. Please ask all questions & have all funds available before bidding. I'm happy to answer any questions, assist with shipping & or inspections. Serious buyers only please! If you are local & would like to see the car in person. Feel free to send me your # so we can set up a day & time. Don't want to wait for the auction to end? I will consider Buy it Now offers to end it early. This car is for sale locally. So the auction could end early if sold. Thank you for viewing my listing.
