Vehicle Detail
Greetings! This is a 1968 Buick Riviera 2 door Coupe with a 430 ci. engine/automatic transmission with column shift. The exterior color is a dark charcoal gray with white vinyl top, white seats & door panels, black carpet & dash and a white headliner. The car has been parked in a barn for the last 12 years. The car ran when parked but consequently, mice have gotten into the upholstery, dash and trunk and have wreaked havoc with the interior. I can't speak to the condition of the engine or transamission as it hasn't been started or driven in over a decade so I am listing this as a parts car. I've taken numerous photos that will hopefully show the condition of the vehicle. This vehicle belonged to my Mother who was the 2nd owner of this original Montana owned car. Any rust on this vehicle appears to be surface scale rust with no real cancer. The front right fender has damage and there is a bullet hole in the right rear quarter. The seats, carpet, and headliner have extensive mouse damage and the trunk rust is from a massive mouse nest that I cleaned out of the spare tire well to take photos. The car has good glass, the windshield actually has no chips, and the driver's side and rear of the car seem to be free of any major flaws. The car has a good hood and front bumper althought the grill has some cracks. The antanae is missing and the drive shaft had enough of a 'bend' in it that there was a slight vibration when you drove it. Please check out the photos and study them closely for your possible parts needs. If you have any questions, please ask and I will do my best to answer in a timely manner. I do work long days so if I am unable to get back to you promptly, please be patient as I will answer all questions at the earliest possible time. This car is located in NE Montana (Culbertson) and winning bidder will be responsible for pick-up/transportation of this car. It's been a shame to watch this car go to pieces and it's time to find it a new home. Lots of good parts or even a possible restoration although, again, I can't say what the condition of the engine and transmission is and am selling solely as a parts car! Thank you for looking and good luck!
