cultusrider Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 After several weeks, the 64' finally arrived all the way across the continent from New York. More "patina" than I was expecting and leaking fluids (transmission fluid, engine oil) but for a 52 year old, original and unrestored car, she is pretty nice. This is my first classic car and I'm looking forward to taking care of any issues and just enjoying her for the time being. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest costg Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Heres a different twist. This was a parts car I pulled out of the hollers deep in West Virginia. Check it out after I washed it with a Brillo pad. Kinda sad to wash off all the cool green lichen though. Imagine my surprise when the old 425 fired up after 10 minutes of tinkering. This thing was rusted so bad but it was loaded to the max with options.Looks like a keeper to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldGerman Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Here is my 65.Built by GM Switzerland Biel-Bienne. (only 1 preowner before me!)Actually restoring the whole interior. Ar you sure the Buick was build in Biel ? I saw a register showing all cars assembled in Biel.According to this, Buicks were Build between 1963 and 1958 only. US models were assembled in a CKD plant, only. The cars were shipped from USA in sub-assemblies (Body, engine, transmission, interior, etc ) and then just final assembly took place in Biel.Reason for this procedure were tax benefits and government subsidies.

RivNut Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 its a work in progress Mitchpap, That's a really nice looking car. Tell us more about it and what "work" it needs. Be sure to introduce yourself to the others on the forum as well. Some history of you and why you chose a Riviera and in which part of the country you live.

Tder1 Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 My 73 Fresh off a "Do Over". You know how it goes, 4 Years later I'm happy with results. I've had Tails all my life as well as a few 2nd Gens. I'm still amazed at the amount of picking that has to be done, Seem like it will never be totally done. There is always something to make it better. My main goal was to have it done in time for the Nationals to get back to the East Coast. Still a bit of a drive from Conn, to Va. but we're good to go. The Motor Pic was just after putting it in, still needed some finish work under the Hood. Still trying to find some Tower Clamps that actually work ! Anybody? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would LOVE to go, but economically, it just isn't on the board this year. Got Corvette trips already planned. But, PLEASE keep it on the East side of the country next year; Nashville would be wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RivNut Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 (edited) The ROA event moves from coast to coast on a rotation basis. The east coast won't be in the picture until possibly 2019. West then Central, then back East. Take the "s" off trips and make it trip then you can make it to the ROA event. Share the pride. See if some of the other ROA members don't chime in and tell you what it's like to go to an ROA "family reunion." Ed PS - The ROA was in Nashville in '93. Chances of a repeat are somewhere between Slim and none and Slim just left town on the last stage.

Guest 95Mike Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 (edited) Terribly bad photo of my blue over blue '95 Supercharged (were they all?) on the day I brought it home. Small rust spots in two wheel arches has sine been repaired. New driver seat padding and complete seat motor replacement. Still needs much TLC, but drives well aside from some squeaking in the suspension over sharp bumps. So smooth!

RivNut Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 (edited) Not all 95 Rivieras were super charged, nor did all come with front bucket seats. Both were optional in 95. Edited May 16, 2016 by RivNut (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
