1963 BUICK RIVIERA CUSTOM LOW RIDER, FLAMES, 90% FINISHED...LOW RESERVE!

Description for Buick Riviera 1963

SO THIS CAR WAS ON EBAY IN MARCH OF LAST YEAR AND IT WAS ALSO LISTED LOCALLY SO WITH 5 DAYS LEFT ON EBAY IT WAS AT $8800 SO I WENT TO CT AND BOUGHT IT FOR HIS ASKING PRICE. AS SOON AS I PULLED INTO THE DRIVEWAY WITH THE TRAILER MY NEIGHBOR CAME OVER AND HAD TO HAVE IT SO I SOLD IT TO HIM. SINCE THEN IT HAS SAT IN HIS GARAGE AND MAYBE DRIVEN 20 MILES. HE NEVER REGISTERED IT AND STILL HAD THE OPEN BILL OF SALE AND CT REGISTRATION I RECEIVED WITH IT. ANYWAYS LONG STORY SHORT MY NEIGHBOR NEEDED TO SELL A FEW TOYS SO I BOUGHT 3 CARS INCLUDING THIS ONE BACK. HERE IS A LIST OF WHAT I REMEMBER IS DONE TO THE CAR AND WHAT I SEE IT NEEDS.
THE PAINT JOB ALONE I WAS 10K. BUT IT WAS NEVER FINAL WETSANDED AND BUFFED AND STILL NEEDS TO BE DONE. DONT GET ME WRONG IT LOOKS GREAT NOW BUT WETSANDED IT WILL BE AMAZING.
THE INTERIOR IS ALL NEW AS FAR AS SEAT COVERS, CUSHIONS, DOOR AND SIDE PANELS, CARPET, HEADLINER AND DASH PAD. DASH IS ORIGINAL AND UNCUT! THE CENTER CONSOLE AND OTHER TRIM ARE EITHER ORIGINAL OR WERE PAINTED FLAT BLACK. OVERALL THE INTERIOR IS IN GREAT CONDITION. NO STAINS RIPS OR TEARS. AFTERALL ITS MOSTLY NEW!!
THE DRIVELINE WAS REBUILT ACCORDING TO THE OWNER. ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION REBUILT AND PAINTED. I DO NOT HAVE ANY PAPERWORK CONFIRMING BUT IT DOES RUN DRIVE AND SHIFT VERY WELL AND DOESNT SEEM TO BE LEAKING ANY FLUIDS.
THE CAR WAS LOWERED 3" WITH ALL JAYCO SUSPENSION AND DOESNT SEEM TO RUB OR BOTTOM OUT.
THE CAR SEEMS TO BE ALL STEEL AND NO SIGNS OF ANY MAJOR BODYWORK.
HERE IS WHAT IT NEEDS: THE EXHAUST NEEDS TO BE FINISHED BECAUSE IT ONLY GOES TO THE REAR AXLE SO IT RATTLES AND SHOULD BE RUN OVER THE AXLE AND SECURED.ALL OF THE EXTERIOR LIGHTS DO NOT WORK BUT THEY DID WORK ORIGINALLY WHEN I BOUGHT IT A YEAR AGO. THE BRAKES SUCK! THEY SUCKED WHEN I GOT IT! MOST LIKELY NEED TO BE BLED AND ADJUSTED.THE INTERIOR IS MISSING A COUPLE OF KNOBS AND RADIO DOESNT WORK. HEATER FAN WORKS.NEEDS ALL NEW WEATHERSTRIPPING INSTALLED. NEEDS HOOD ADJUSTED AT COWL OR IT MAY JUST NEED THE BUMPS INSTALLED. ITS LINED UP BUT DIPS A LITTLE AT THE BACK.WIPERS DO NOT WORK. 15" CRAGAR STEELIES WITH WHITEWALLS
OVERALL ITS A REALLY NICE CAR THAT NEEDS MORE TIME THAN MONEY. ITS A BAD ASS RIDE. I JUST DROVE IT 15 MILES TO MY SHOP AND OTHER THAN THE BRAKES AND HAVING NO LIGHTS IT RIDES NICE AND STRAIGHT! NOW IF I KEEP IT I WOULD PUT A SET OF CHROME 18's, REPAINT THE ENGINE AND ENGINE BAY BLACK AND DO THE MINOR SHIT IT NEEDS AND RIDE IT.DO YOUR HOMEWORK....THESE ARE GETTING HARDER TO FIND AND ALL THE HARD AND EXPENSIVE WORK IS DONE!! I HAVE MORE PICS SO MESSAGE ME WITH AN EMAIL AND I WILL SEND.
THANKS AND GOOD LUCK
CAR IS SOLD WITH BILL OF SALE AND CT REGISTRATION
