I am very pleased to announce that the Riviera Owners Association (ROA) is now able to accept PayPal and Secure Credit Card Payments for Renewals and New Members online!

I failed to mention the ability to pay by credit card in my first posting,

We know this will make it more convenient for everyone including our Foreign members.

Applications are on our website at www.rivowners.org Now there is no reason to put off joining or renewing.

Thanks for your support

Great. Folks I want to pass on one good tip to keep in mind for any website whether it is ebay or paypal or any website that you enter or have entered your personal information in. If you get any emails from these websites that you need to log in and update this or that, I never use the link in the email. I always start a new internet browser window and manually type in www . paypal . com and log in from there. I just wanted to pass this along.

Hello to all,

Ive just joined the ROA... today infact! And I have a few questions here:

1) Is the ROA chat forum available for only members of the
ROA, or can anyone post up topics and reply to them?

2) Whenever I log to the ROA home page, does it always come
through the AACA page just to use the ROA forum?

3) As a member, will I be receiving e-newsletters and
associated correspondance?

Thank you!

Welcome! If you own a Rivera, like Rivieras, or are thinking about GETTING a Riviera, this is the place to be!

No, all who love Rivieras, any year, are welcome here. That is our common bond. The ROA is a great organization that helps bring Riviera enthusiasts together, but it is not required.

I think I understand your question and the short answer is "yes". The ROA discussion forum is hosted through the AACA forum. But you do not need to come into the Forum through the ROA home page, because membership there is not required here. You can just keep a "Favorites" that points you straight to the Forum.

We do not do national e-correspondence. You will get the Riview magazine from the ROA through regular paper mail.

Depending on what part of the country you live in, you may get e-mail correspondence from your ROA Regional Coordinator regarding activities planned in your area. But you will not get routine e-mails from the national office.

Hope that helps. Jump in, tell us about your Riv (or the Riv if your dreams)!

Hi,
Just joined the ROA last night by PayPal.
Anybody know how I can get a username/password so I can access some of the "members only" areas of the website?
I'm in the process of buying a '65 Riviera, 71K miles, Sahara Mist over fawn deluxe interior. Can't wait to get it in the next few days.
Thanks for any help!!

Updated passwords always come with each issue of "The Riview", but in the meantime, if you e-mail head office they'll get you in.

Haven't been able to get a pw yet, but wonder if anybody can answer a question about my car (which I haven't taken delivery of yet). Its a '65 in Sahara Mist currently with a brocade deluxe interior (I believe its fawn, with minor damage to the driver's seat). I'm considering changing to leather, but not sure if there is a compatible leather. I've seen several cars with the saddle leather/vinyl, but my car has a very different color on the dash, doors, etc. more of a gold color. Seems like the leather/vinyl colors offered by suppliers are limited, and do not include a "gold" color.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Joe Northrop
