[It's sad!!]

Did you do any homework on this? The Reatta forum was started in 1999, the Riviera forum started in 2007. There are other forums out there, hopefully you'lll find one of them soon.

Sorry. Not trying to hit a nerve here. I didn't know the ROA forum was newer. My thought is the older Rivs are alot cooler car. By the way can you let me in on other forums. I look at V8Buick.com some but mostly Skylark, GS (Skylark) content. Thanks, Bill

Over 20,000 posts in the Reatta section in the AACA forum. Not even 2000 for Rivi's. :confused: Are there other forums out there??

['65 GS with fresh paint]

I thought that color was seafoam green metallic. I have a '65 that color.

[65 cherry wood panels]

I bought my veneer on E-bay. (as stated above for $35) It is walnut 1/42" thick. I glued foil on the back to make it less brittle. (The factory wood was backed with a foil.) I took care when removing the old stuff. Used it as a template. Cut the new veneer with a razor. Intalled it with 3M spray adhiesive. And finished it with satin urethane. No stain. I am really proud of how it turned out.

[65 cherry wood panels]

I bought $35 worth of veneer sheets. I have enough to do 15 cars. I did mine in one day. Looks fine. Sure beats $275 for a pre-cut kit.

[OPG catalog is finally out!]

Got mine yesterday too. Man I wish they had a dash pad !!!!!

[1965 Riv quarter]

I know it won't be a real big deal to make up a patch for this one. But a pre-formed panel would be so much easier.

[1965 Riv quarter]

I have '65 with a little rust in the driverside quarter. Are there any reproduction body panels available? I called one of the salvage parts house in the Riview mag. They wanted $500. I'll never pay that much.

Had a '65 fender??
