When you have brake line failure it doesn't matter if you have a single or dual master cylinder. Your underwear will look the same. Kevin

Usually the hardest part of a project is getting started. Kevin

I like the tail lights but the rear bumper doesn't look right.

Half the fun is driving a old Riviera to and from a ROA meet. The other half is the people you meet there. Kevin

Winston, that's long trip. Hopefully gas prices stay down this year. Kevin

Ok ,I fixed it.

I know it might be early but I made my hotel reservation last week. Looking forward to warmer weather. Kevin

Thank you for posting the link. I have trouble navigating online. Kevin

I'd put the link on here but I don't know how Kevin

Jim, if you do a search on hot rod article on diesel oil, it will come up a motor trend link Kevin

Some people use diesel oil because of higher levels of zddp. Hot Rod magazine had a article on diesel oil in gas engines. It said the zddp in diesel oil is for lower rpm engines and is different from the zddp in oils for gas engines that see higher rpms. Use the right oil. Kevin

VR1 10w30 and a wix filter works good for me.

I couldn't find a local locksmith and gm dealers who could cut to the numbers on a 60 year old car. I found a guy online from New Jersey who could cut to the numbers with original type key blanks . I don't remember the name. Kevin

When I got my '63, it had 5 keys that were copies of copies and didn't work very well. I had new keys made from the numbers. The door skin can be removed to get the lock off to check the number and see if it matches the trunk. Kevin

I never have good luck getting those nuts loose with flare nut wrenches. I always end up using vice grips. The flare nut wrenches never fit snug . Kevin

Like Tom said your linkage can be adjusted so switch pitch can happen short off full throttle. I don't see any harm in using it. I do try to let off the throttle when shifting from low to drive. Kevin

Is it possible there was more than one supplier? I couldn't finish this earlier. I was cut off by update. Kevin

I had a 1970 Pontiac that had the nylon timing gear. When it failed it was like the key was turned off. Someone must have changed yours. Kevin

Front wheel drive and all wheel drive has made winter driving easier. Prior to this, weight in the trunk and snow tires were best way to go. People still forget how to drive till after the first storm. Kevin

You are correct. Another John Candy memorable car was in Trains planes and automobiles. Kevin

Looking good Bob. Are the red knobs on the turn signal switch and tilt lever standard or are they a Turbinator touch? Kevin

The problem with some of those companies was that you were supposed to take your car back every year for inspection and most people didn't do that. I worked with guy who had a 10 year old Ford pickup that looked like new. We figured his truck must have weighed 400 pounds more than the average with all the ziebart on it. Kevin

The Riviera Owners Association is a good source of information if you haven't joined yet. You need to post a picture of your car. Kevin

I think Uncle Buck drove a Lincoln. Kevin

First one I went to I met a guy named Red Riviera Bob. Kevin
