Has anyone ever seen one of these it's a Buick Motor Division award for being a customer, a friend found it while going through her late father's stuff.

Got an email about this car in Michigan, https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/886508722733925/

Oh Cool, was not in my 1956 parts book, that's why I looked elsewhere.

According to parts book, they are for 1955. see picture 1392626

Does anyone know where you could find the front seat bench foam, seat covers were replaced and are in great shape but foam going away fast, thanks.

Willie, try clearing your cache and/or browsing history first, then we can look for some other support.

WOW!!!!

Hey Keith, just thinking have you thought about timing chain, I think they had nylon gears that dry out and crack and so on, could be your issue with unstable idle, just a thought.

A friend of mine came across a NOS '65 Riv Right Rear Quarter Panel and wondered what it might be worth and thoughts? Thanks!

I think a friend of mime owned this and callled it Stubby!

John, I think that interior was not quite correct for the Wildcat. When I saw the picture of the interior, reproductiion for that is hard to find if at all.

Too bad it's the same time as the Riviera Owners Association International Meet ROA International Meet Kalamazoo, MI June 21-24, 2023

Car is in New York.

It's still where my sister first saw it. and I saw it there in May 2022, I think they are using it.

such a simple feat, a garage called my brother once in Flint, MI to find out how to start an old Buick, somehow, they thought he would know, and he did! Surprised they didn't call me first, though!!!

Warned my brother so look out! he is going to see if the '56 special will go, as the '56 Century needs a starter solenoid, in the meantime, he got the backhoe running, busy boy.

Needs alot of research and planning, sort of duplicates things already in place like the Sloan Museum of Discovery and the General Motors Heritage Collection.
