  1. The part is sold. Thank you for the interest!
  2. I purchased this Distributor in 2016 to install in a 66 Dual Quad Riviera, yet no longer have that vehicle. PM me if interested and I can send more pictures and price. It has the correct 1111058 Delco tag on it for a factory dual quad. Thank you, Gabriel

    Horns.

    So, how do we ID the year for these horns?
  4. Does this look like an original GS tire for 67 (found in spare well of a factory black 67GS Buick Riviera)?
  5. I don't want the cars of my youth. The 80s vehicles are lame IMO. Rivieras are Legend!
  6. I agree that I like the centering of the license plate in the 73 design and the pointed tail is a bit bodacious, yet there is just something about the 71 with the louvers vented that makes it look like a jet engine powered vehicle.
  7. It is official...NOT A BOAT TAIL! Hehehehe. Still either way, people will call it a boat tail, while technically it is the rear of a car with sudo-boat inspired body lines. Although, it sure does look a lot like what someone might call a Boat-tail!
  8. Could you post a picture of the code plate for the 73? Thank you.
  9. I had something similar in my triple green 67 Riviera...
  10. Wow, he will be missed and he had vast arcane Riviera knowledge! Thank you for the update!
  11. Plastic Boat Tail grill (71) went for: $225 Metal Boat Tail grill (72) went for: $450
  12. Results are rolling in. Dominated by in person bidding. $11,250 for "new in box" 66 Dual Quads. https://www.proxibid.com/Joe-R-Pyle-Complete-Auction-and-Realty-Service/Lifetime-Collection-of-Dr-James-R-Foor/event-catalog/197798?srch=&srchloc=true&ipp=100&sort=0
  13. Im not sure if this is correct for a 63 Buick Riviera, but interesting auction. https://www.ebay.com/itm/184792504008?hash=item2b067dd6c8:g:V9kAAOSwmXtghcG9

  15. You may also want to check out the topic post on finding a inspection sheet behind the drivers side kick panel...
  16. Yeah, Thunderbirds are cool. I have been liking the 1971 form (alligator print vinyl top anyone?!), but frankly it is hard to beat the style and performance of the Riviera...as we know.

  18. Gorgeous 67. Excellent color. I am curious about the added rear turn signal and front reflector/turn signal. Did your dad add that for safety reasons? Thank you for connecting with the RoA forum to offer insight. That is really appreciated!
  19. These are not the best of photos to look at, but may give an idea. On a side note, make sure if someone ships you an older vehicle, that they tape down some of the chrome/stainless pieces. Notice the missing on the back window and front windshield is loose. It must have been a bumpy ride! PS: I like redlines on most GS, but I hear the redlines from DB are hard to get clean if dirtied...
  20. "hard to say... may be interior door handles...or door straps... '68 was a year of 3 different deluxe interior door panes" Darwin F. What type of door handle do you have on the inside.
  21. Darwin confirmed that the K30 is the RPO code for cruise control. Sounds like our new lingo for cruising. Time to K30!
  22. Just pulled mine out of the 68 Triple Black GS for the first day of Spring. It was a bit of a challenge because of the tight fit and sharp metal; oversized tweezers work the best I found. Laboratory grade, and not too big... Does anyone know what K30 "special sticker" signifies? Maybe special order or GS?
