Up for sale is a 1963 Buick Riviera. The car has a salvage title from Arizona. The car does not have any keys. The car is largely original and complete. It is totally sun baked and will need a complete restoration. The windshield is cracked and the driver’s side glass is broken/missing. There is some rust in the floor pans and around the rear window corners (minor). The car is a good candidate for restoration. I am unable to open the trunk so I have no idea what its condition is. The body is straight and the gaps are good. Obviously, there is a large dent in the driver rear quarter. This damage did not affect the alignment of the trunk, etc. The car has rare Buick rally wheels but I am unable to tell what year they are from – they appear to be 65’s. The engine is not a number’s matching engine. The car does not run and I have not attempted to turn it over. I believe the engine is a ‘66 401 nailhead. If so, I would imagine the tranny is a non-original ST400 (rather than a dynaflow). The door hinges and the looking mechanism for the passenger door need attention. Some of the wiring (power window harness, plug cables) has been chewed by rodents/critters. The Riv is very original. im willing to sell the car without the engine and tranny *** THE CAR IS FOR SALE LOCALLY. I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO TERMINATE THE AUCTION AT ANY TIME - EVEN ONCE BIDDING HAS BEGUN. THX.
