    I just inherited a 1972 Riviera, never restored, in great condition, all documents including window sticker, stereo danglies and 8 track welcome tape, repair manuals, 1 owner, 50000 miles. What have I got???

    It ginormous and drives like a boat. Is it worth keeping, showing, selling??

    Congrats. :TU:

    I think you should sell it to me. :Brow: :laugh: No but seriously, keep it. If you sold a gem that nice you would regret it. Anything you need to do to the car or want to do you came to the right place. Got any pictures? :Do No:

    Sorry no pics yet. I'm having the car shipped from Indiana and it might take a few weeks. This gets added to quite a large stable that includes a '95 mustang road race car, shelby A/C cobra replica, porsche 911 and the daily drivers. I'm not sure I need another car (I know I don't need another car although I always want another car)

    What's something like this worth if I did sell it?

    I do need to give the car a full once over and replace belts, hoses, tires... Is there anything unique to these cars that I should be looking out for? Here's some question marks in my mind:
    - Tranny Fluid Type?
    - Rear End Fluid?
    - Oil recommendation?
    - Carb adjustments, cleaning or other advice?
    - Known problems, heater core, engine cooling, electrical.....

    I know the hood release is broken, is this a dealer part, junk yard or home made?
