philip roitman Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 Hi all. New to this forum, but not new to collecting Buicks. I am interested in buying a 1965 Riviera Gran Sport on Hemmings.com Ad # 2292832. I have spoken with the owner and he has sent additional pictures. The car is located in California. I am waiting for Monday to see if the Carbs are the correct #'s and also the #'s for the distributor. It does bave the BS trans. Supposed to be numbers matching Motor, etc. The owners name is Jesse Horn and he says his partner in the car is Tim Sweely who is supposed to be well known in the Riviera world as he is a large manufacturer /supplier for 1963-1965 Riviera parts. Both are members of the ROA. I was wondering if anyone knows about this car or has any opinions on the car and owners. I have spoken to a couple of friends including Ken Lisk who owns a '65 Non GS with dual carbs from the factory. They are the ones who gave me the Carb and Distributor #'s and also a link to the discussion on his car here. I am a long time GSCA, BCA, and AACA member with Senior and Grand National Award cars. One was also nominated last year for a National Award. Any info or help would be greatly appreciated, because I really would like to try to purchase this car. I did email Tom Mooney who was reccomended to me by Ken L., but I have not recieved a reply yet. Thanks in advance for any help I can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philip roitman Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 P.S. Just want to say thank you to Tom Mooney for getting back to me right after my previous post. Just ended a nice detailed phone conversation with him. I received a lot of information, that really helped a Riviera novice like me. I learned a lot about the Gran Sport to go forward with in my persuit for one of these cars, if not this one then something else in the future. Thanks again Tom, it was a pleasure to talk to you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It smelled musty, had a cheap re-paint and the engine bay has been completely ignored. One of the dealers presented an arrogance that made me walk away. The wear on the dash parts and engine bay told me a rolled odometer. Nice car but not worth anywhere near the price IMO And there she sits still.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to look it up on the ROA site. Seems like one of those standard inclusions where almost everybody bought an optional choice—another example would be the cloth split bench seat on the early eighth-generation cars. Definitely an interestingly configured vehicle: extra cost paint and extra cost seats, but no optional wheel covers, no Landau, no Astroroof, etc. Edited August 19, 2019 by J3Studio (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
