It would be nice to have a Riviera like this. I do wonder however, how recent those pictures were taken? Was this car in a part of Florida that flooded with tropical storm Fay this year?

Not having AC may be partly why the price is low, but unless the rust is worse than described, this is a great buy. Geeeze 55chevy, how can you not go for it being so close.

My 1990 reatta convertible is my current project(money pit), it is tempting, I love those hide away lights. If a fellow wanted to make a quick buck do a MAACO job and Ebay it LOL. It did say AC.

I also love 1954 Buicks as well, always wanted to convert a Reatta into a 1954 look-a-like. We didn't get a lot of TS Fay flooding, just the usual low lying areas.

I might could go take a look for someone, wife and I were just in Gulf Breeze twice motorcycle cruising over the weekend on our GoldWing

Man it DOES say A/C!!! JohnD it's got your name all over it, go for it. I've loved these cars ever since '66 when I was in high school. My buddies older sister who was smokin hot, had a blue one just like this. After she heard from my buddy how much I liked the car she gave me a ride. Ahhh, the memories.......
