Haha! Same here, might have to give it a spin.

I run the valvoline VR1 10/30 also. Good stuff.

I’m a fan of the Stewart Warner green line mechanical. I added led lights to match the rest in the car.

If your going to drive it , I can’t recommend the Bilsteins enough. Worth every penny IMO..

Yeah they stick with what they know, upholstery.. Dash pads are a different animal. Definitely not the same grain pattern as the seat materials. Thankful mine isn’t cracked

I got one too. Good to see.

Advice Wanted on Lowering a '49 Roadmaster
71GS replied to Dan O's topic in Buick - Performance and Modified
I lowered my 65 Riv with 2” springs and it rides great. Added Bilstien shocks too and can’t recommend them enough. Don’t cut the spring, buy a good set of lowered springs. -
Alex, Absolutely, will do. I wish he had a box of them.

Those were the days. I bought my first Riv in ‘88. Clean black 71 with buckets. Paid $1050.00

Hit a swap meet yesterday and found these. NOS wood wheel horn cap emblems. Straight out of GM’s Inland division. My dad worked there too and they most likely went home in the guys lunch box. 🤣 They polished up perfectly.

Your right. Top pic shows the hole for the power window switch. I had not cut the vinyl for the switch when I took the pic. I hope This helps. Note, that’s a standard interior switch. They’re available new, I needed one switch. The deluxe ones are different and not available new anywhere when I needed one. Again, Gene probably has a drawer full of them 😁

That’s a deal. I’d take em if you weren’t 500 miles from me. Any idea on shipping to Ohio 45434? thanks

Ron, the armrest panels are sheet metal. They were covered with padding and the vinyl covers. I don’t have any measurements but here are some pics. I had some rust repair to the bottom of one. I glued jute carpet padding to it then installed Clark’s covers. Hope this helps. Wouldn’t be to difficult to fabricate, but as Ed said, Gene probably has some.

I always thought those motor wheels were so rare because they were recalled for cracking or something? I also never knew there was any relation to GM. First I’ve heard of that. Cool wheels though
