Hi Frank Sorry for the delay of my answer! ;-) In fact, I don't exactly know if the car was built or just assembled in Biel... maybe you can find more information with the numbers of my '65 Riv!? Regards, Eric

HI Besides of other parts, I'm looking for a original extern mirror to mount on the passenger side of my '65 Riv... Do you guys have any idea where to get such items? (...and with a provider who is willing to ship to Switzerland??) Thank you very much!

Hi Folks I read this thread with much of interest and was hoping to find some links or something ;-D... In fact, I'm looking for a original extern mirror on the passenger side of my 65 Riv... Do you guys have any idea where to get such items? (...and with a provider who is willing to ship to Switzerland??) Thank you very much!

Hi Mike Thank you so much! I've seen this provider but I was unsure 'cos he mentioned that the items wouldn't fit to the 65 Riv... So you really recommend me to buy these covers? I want to be 100% sure because the shipping fees are as high as the items ;-)

Hi Folks Thank you so much 48Super, this is exactly what I'm looking for! :-) ...only problem: They don't ship to Switzerland :'-( Do you guys know any other provider who would ship outside the US? @onedesertdog: Sometimes the covers crack because of the retractor... By unfasten it retracts that fast, that the metal piece of the belt is hurting the plastic cover...

Hi I'm looking for some seat belt retractor cover for my Riv '65... Have you guys any idea from where to get them? OPGI has quite similar looking ones (but for Cadillac). Thank you for your informations :-) Greez, Eric

Hi you all! Thank you guys so much for all these precious informations! I'll try that and I'm pretty sure that I will get it out quite easily! @ Alini: Just the gauges... I don't want to remove the dash pad on top - if possible. A nice sunday 2U all! :-)

Here is my 65. Built by GM Switzerland Biel-Bienne. (only 1 preowner before me!) Actually restoring the whole interior.

Hi I need some help to remove the dashboard from my 65 Riv. I could remove everything quite well but the dashboard still rebel . Is there any special things to remove first, hidden screws or anything to know for the remove? Thank very much for helping me with further informations! Greetings from Switzerland

Hi, my name is Eric and I live in Switzerland. (Sorry for my poor English!) Last year I had the great opportunity to purchase a beautiful Riviera '65, assembled by GM Swiss. Looks pretty well and is a very good driver (only one owner before me!). Still, there is a lot to do on it, but I have a lot of time to restore it step by step.... First thing will be the whole interior. I hope to find a lot of good inspiration in this forum and salute all the Buick owners out there! Greetings from Berne, Eric
