Vehicle description
1965 Buick Riviera
Good running and driving car. Cruises down the freeway effortlessly maintaining comfortable freeway speeds.
Factory options include Air Conditioning 4 way power bucket driver"s seat Retractable front seat belts Anti-glare windshield
Dealer options include
AM/FM Radio with manual antenna Autronic Eye automatic headlight dimmer
Drivetrain 401 Buick Nailhead V8 indicated by the "LT" stamp at front of block.
Engine fires right up and runs well, does not smoke or miss, Not the the matching numbers engine per the vin number. However it is correct engine for this year per casting number at the back of the block.
New water pump New thermostat New upper and lower radiator hoses with clamps Fresh coolant/anti-freeze Rebuilt OEM starter New starter solenoid New Battery cables
Factory 3 speed transmission shifts smooth through all gears.
CHASSIS Original unmodified GM chassis and suspension Power assist brakes in good working order Famous finned aluminum brake drums
BODY Original un-modified body by Fisher Very solid body - I can find no body rot from underneath. Said to have spent the bulk of it"s days in the dry Texas heat.
Fresh repaint of it"s factory Arctic White on top and bottom. New weatherstripping
Bumpers and trim very presentable - some trim looks freshly polished Trunk area nicely restored
Interior Looks to be largely original Carpet replaced at some point. Still has the original owner"s "Custom Built For" plate on the glove box door
MISC Good battery, tested, takes and holds a charge
Working factory AC blows cold
Working clam-shell headlights Turn signals operational Factory power windows working - driver"s rear can be a little sticky at times Doors, trunk, and hood are aligned well, opening and shutting as they should Good skinny white wall radial tires New exhaust
NOTES Overall a solid running driving car, modestly restored where it needed it. It is not clunky or a rattle trap. Quite even when cruising at 70 mph. Feels solid and in command of the road.
As it is an old car it has it"s own soul and quirks. She could still use some cosmetic TLC as desired. Actual mileage of the car and/or engine unknown.
Personal inspections always welcome, message to set up an appointment.
