Frame off restored car that has never had any rust, ever! The riviera was restored for a local customer here in phoenix, arizona 5-6 years ago but before the job was finished he inheirited a property after his parents passed away and he lost interest in old cars. The buick went into storage for a number of years and we recently aquired the car from him. The restoraton cost was way over $50,000 and probably over $60,000. New paint (the car was painted in pieces and then assembled), new interior, new interior wood grain, the original 425 nailhead v8 was totally rebuilt, the th400 trans was rebuilt, rebuilt front end, brakes, exhaust, new and/or rebuilt carburetor, starter, alternator, fuel pump, radiator and on and on. The car has been driven around 1000 miles, possible a little more since the restoration so it is totally driveable as it sits. The owner wanted the riviera to have a cleaner look up front so the headlights were mounted behind the chrome grills on the fenders, like on a 1965 riviera except the grilles don't open. And a 1965 riviera grill was added. The front of the car is very clean and classy looking! we have not decided what to do on a few details, stock cooil springs, slightly lowered springs or air suspension? The price of $29,500 is as it sits now, aftermarket wheels and possible air suspension will add to the price.
