vektro Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Here are a few pics of my newly acquired 65 Riv. No rust, headlights and power windows work, interior clean. So far, so good. Replacing valve cover gasket, pinion seal. See what else pops up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RivNut Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Verrrrry nice!If you've been reading threads on this forum, you'll recognize that your pos and neg battery posts should be reversed. Turn your battery around so the pos post is not next to the fender and the hood brace.Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vektro Posted March 24, 2014 Author Share Posted March 24, 2014 I'm on it, Ed. Been trying to find a 27f battery, but may take your suggestion and try a 24f, which is easier to find. Then the cables will be switched. Just ordered new H-2 style springs and Bilstein shocks from George Hussey, from the ads in the Riview. Super nice guy to deal with. I would recommend anyone looking for springs give him a call. He mainly works on Porche's, but owns a 65 Riviera. Great guy. He is dr914 on this forum or his ad is in the Riview , 1963-65 Bilstein shocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
