Vehicle Detail

Up for auction is my 1963 Buick Riviera Project Car that is almost done. I bought the car from a true Buick enthusiast and Riviera Owner Club Member who was in the middle of a body off restoration and had some health issues. There is no rust on car anywhere, frame has been acid dipped,metal work was done while body was off frame. Original 401 Nailhead rebuilt with 0 Miles. Car has P/S,P/B,P/W,A/C,Power Antenna,Power Drivers Seat,Power Trunk Release and Original color is ( V ) Granada Red with Black Interior. Glass is all good and Radial Tires have 0 Miles. This Rivi is very complete but I seem to have no time to finish, So whoever gets this car will have a very easy finish to a very desirable color/optioned First Year Buick Riviera. Look at all pictures before asking questions or if you want to see something in particular please ask. Items still needed are fuel lines,trans cooler lines and new sending unit, everything else comes with sale. I would like to sell this car to someone who knows about how rare this car is in this condition. With that being said, I want to sell the car not give it away. Please call with any questions and thanks for looking. If you have less than 10 Feedbacks, you must call the number listed to make sure you are not some 9 year old kid or somebody that doesn't have Mommy's permission to buy a project car. Thank a certain self proclaimed car guy from Kentucky for that. This is being re-listed because of non-paying bidder. Please ask questions before bidding.. That's the bag of goods I was sold! The previous buyer drove six hours and seen the lies and left. Now the truth. This car will make a excellent driver and I have a estimate of 2800.00 to get this in a condition equal or better then the description he stated.I never started the motor and trans isn't hooked up. Drive shaft isn't installed and engine harness needs to be hooked up. Seems like all the parts to complete are there needed to complete.The exhaust looks new but is painted in silver paint. This wasn't a frame off and no it's not a rust free car.The pans are good and just a couple of small areas in the trunk to be repaired.My body man has a mechanical shop too. Says about four thousand dollars and he can make this look real good.Here is his estimate.
