When I bought my first Riv new in 65 I had to fill out the card and mail it in to the factory to get my nameplate . It was sent to my house and I put it on . About 5 years ago I sent in another card that I had for another Riv but never got a response ! LOL I thought I would at least get a letter saying OUT OF STOCK !

The VT must have been added before the sticker was made . All was done before I bought the car .

Looks like I will be judging my old 65 Riv GS in Wisconsin ?

I did confirm - VIN is the same as mine .

I think this is a car that I once owned . The switch on the door panels are power locks from a Cadillac . I bought the car from my friend Chuck Good who did the restoration . I sold it to a guy in Illinois and then it was sold to someone in Florida . I lost track of it after that . I would like to find out who ownes the car as he has one of my Calif. Plates and I have paperwork he might want ? I was a very nice car when I owned it but went down hill after .

CAN YOU HELP Mr Cowan ?
Hi Dick,
Nice talking with you today!
As I mentioned, we are looking for a 71 Buick Riviera that we can rent for this movie.
We're doing a couple of pick up shots of Mr. Pacino this Tuesday in Los Angeles. It's very simple, two close ups of Mr. Pacino sitting in the car. It's not driving. We are going to shoot in a studio with a "Green Screen" background.
Do you know of a car like this we could rent for the day?
Thanks so very much! Really appreciate your help!
