Vehicle description
Here"s a chance to own/drive something different from everything else on the road or at the shows. Classic Buick styling . Drop it low for a low riding stance or get on the gas for some hot rodding fun.
-Numbers matching car with original twin turbine automatic transmission, unique to 1963. - All original metal on the car.
- Original 401ci engine freshened up in 2006, all bushings under car that was in need of repair, was replaced. I have all of the other new bushings to give to new owner. - Disc brake conversion on all for wheels (original fin brakes in storage in the event you"d want to go back to original).
- ACC custom carpet in dark brown; Buick riviera spec headliner in black; car seats and door cards reupholstered in "whisper" vinyl (tobacco and black), reminiscent to the original Mitchell color schemes but softer, more supple vinyl. This car was a originally a fully optioned leather vehicle.
- Seats were reconditioned prior to reupholstery, lower rear seat frame was sourced from a salvage yard in Arizona. New dark brown seat belts correct for a first generation Riviera.
- All plastic light covers in car replaced, new. Rear lights surrounds new.
- Bumpers rechromed.
- exhaust routed to sides of car versus rear and has glass pack mufflers (moderate yet throaty exhaust).
- new Edelbrock 1406 carburetor.
- slight leak at transmission
- car was the only modified/hot rod invited into the Americana Manhasset Concours d"Elegance due to the crowd it attracted in the parking lot in 2010. The car was welcomed back, every year since 2011-2015, which speaks to quality of build, maintenance and the tastefulness of the modifications.
- Trunk "finished."
- Engine compartment painted at time of bare metal respray but the engine needs to painted. I did not address so next owner could decide if they wanted to put the block in Buick green period correct but not for 1963 Riv, black/silver (stock) or another color.
- brake booster added but car only needed a brake bias valve.
- Alternator rebuilt in 2015
- Any thing not original to the car was purchased from CARS, Clark"s Corvair Parts, and/or sourced from parts cars. This car was completed before OPGI started making Riviera parts. No expense was spared.
