PWB Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Anyone know this car? Is it a true GS? Strange, a 73 GS with no mags. Extremely nice. Almost every option? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1973-Buick-Riviera-GS-Hard-Top-/292036551913?forcerrptr=true&hash=item43febc24e9:g:3PcAAOSwOgdYrwFv&item=292036551913 Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chimera Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Well it looks like it could be the low miles they claim, however without documentation I just consider it 118K. I like the color a lot, yet was the most common. I guess the air cleaner top is not chrome because it is not a stage one, but just has the gold GS handling package. I don't like the repeat picture as the third and they should have included a picture from the front, especially to see where the grill would show stage 1 badging if present (simple mistake) and the don't use all the picture slots available. Looks like a great Riviera with potentially under 20K miles and excellent condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JZRIV Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Remember Stage 1 has a W in VIN and the GS emblems would be red. This car likely has more options than listed. I see fender light monitors, max trac, probably has cornering lamps, trip set/speed alert. Can't tell what radio. Pics just aren't revealing enough. If that's not an 18k mile car someone did a great job making it look like one. My guess is its legit but as always a buyer should/would want to put eyes on it. Any repaint when asking top dollar requires an in person inspection IMO. If paint is real nice and legit miles that's a great buy. Put a set of chrome wheels on it and BAM you just lowered the demographic classification of the car by 20 years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I`m sure there is a year on which this is correct... Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWB Posted February 25, 2017 Author Share Posted February 25, 2017 (edited) Man I love this car. I think the wheel covers are a nice deviation from mags. Simple, clean. But is this car a mag delete with GS package? The interior doors panels appear factory fresh. Never touched. Amazing. I've got to chain myself from going to see it! Even at 118K its fantastic. I see the photo of engine bay was before the heater core repair. Hope the carpet didn't get flooded. - still cant upload pics Edited February 25, 2017 by PWB (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Edited first post that indicated red emblems on a 73 stage 1 car. All were yellow including GS Stage 1 option cars. 71/72 emblems were red Thanks Edited February 25, 2017 by JZRIV (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
