Clean Colorado title in hand, ready to sell!  Runs and drives like a dream. Very mechanically sound. Recent full tune up. Starts up with no hesitation. 70,750 original miles. Mileage will slightly increase as vehicle is driven. All of the glass is in perfect condition. No chips or cracks. Needs interior work as pictured (front floor pan repair where there are two rust holes, new carpet, new wind lace). Bondo is present and cracking in some exterior areas. This is not a perfect show car by any means, but it’ll get you looks when driving around town! Great for a solid daily driver or project. Brand new Coker classic H78-15 wide whitewall tires.

I really like the outside of this car. The inside not so much. Price has me gritting my teeth.

I do like the storm cloud pictures. Hopefully not prophetic for the future owner.

I think you can count on heater core work right off the bat.

 

I always wonder what is so wrong with the original carburetion that people think they HAVE to install an Edelbrock. How does one start one of these with an aftermarket carb installed?

It's probably just got a switch on the dashboard; there are just two wires going to the microswitch on the carburetor.  I actually put an AVS2 on my Riviera this year.  I had the AFB apart at least five times, and it just wasn't working consistently (I've worked on a bunch of them, so it's nothing new).  It might need rebushed throttle shafts, but the AVS2 went on with an hour or so of adapting and another hour of tuning.  If you're not going for 100% original, it's a nice option to have out there.

My first car!

No, not this one, but mine was the identical model, color, and interior.

I bought it from my neighbor for 3 cents a pound spring of 1969.

6G4001285, I will never forget the VIN.

I have ZERO interest in buying this car!

The original Carter AFB's wore out at the throttle shafts, same as the Rochesters. Just due to age and usage. The Edelbrock's are just new Carters. No big deal and they work much better than trying to fiddle around with a 60 yr old carb. Unless you are an expert. I'm not.
