mach1 Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Hi, My 68 has the trunk badge missing.It appears the holes were welded over before it was resprayed. Does anyone know where I can get one of these from,I searched the internet but cannot find one. It is supposed to show "Riviera by Buick" Thanks Felix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
68RIVGS Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 . . . just keep looking Felix, they do appear on 'evilBay' from time to time - 'good used' is probably your best source mate, as NOS Riviera emblems are rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this gent' elco1979 provided me with good items. He has many parts NOT listed on the 'net. You must contact direct with your need. You will probably need to get it re-chromed also.

68RIVGS Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Contact "Riviera Bob" Stemm, ROA# 2827 - rahlinas@aol.com - or call 810-348-9525 Flint, MI He advertises in the RIVIEW and deals in '63-'65 Riviera parts, but he did have an NOS '68/'69 Riviera trunk emblem 4 sale at the Hershey,PA meet in 2011. It may have sold by know, or maybe he still has it - worth a try ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epriv Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Felix, I have one along with the rubber backing plate (mounted from the inside of the trunk), but no nuts. PM me. Mitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM me. Mitch The emblem is fastened with 2, (..maybe 3?), self tapping, steel, speed nuts that cut their own thread on the studs of the pot metal emblem. Don't over-tighten the emblem, as the studs are only pot metal, and are prone to breaking !
