I have a set of 68 riveria buckets, the drivers side has power, and it works. The pass side moves freely forward and back. The seats are complete, and are in exceptionally good shape. The sides and backs are also really good. You could probably just redye the seats a different color. I am parting out the rest of the car. It has a 430-4 in it, th-350 "I think", AC, console, tilt-column, and power windows. The trim is in good shape, and the hubcaps are all there. If your intrested in anything just email me and Ill be happy to answer any questions you may have. I have additional pictures, just ask. Heres my email SShep71@msn.com
Hi SShep, I'd be interested in the buckets, console/shifter, column, and, I don't know, cluster too if that's needed to convert from bench/column shift to buckets/console. How much would you be asking for the setup? I could probably come up to your area to do the disassembly and stuff, and avoid shipping costs, but exactly when is sort of open to question. Anyway, if you could let me know I'd appreciate it. Thanks. Jim
Would you happen to have the sheetmetal piece that holds the radiator in place from the top. It bolts to the front support and then clamps the radiator in place. I'm not sure of the correct name for the item, but I've been looking for one. Brett
Doesn't look like I'm going to be able to complete the deal and get up to northeast PA anytime soon, so if anyone is holding off on the seats, console, etc. because of my response above, please have at the stuff! Sorry for any delays I may have caused. Jim
2manybuicks it doesnt have disk brakes. Bret It does have the sheetmetal piece you are looking for. Email me and ill send pics
I'm interested in the A-pillar covers (the chrome/stainless ones) and the headliner trim (again the chrome/stainless stuff). Is it available and in good condition?
SShep71, does the car have manual A/C? If it does I'm interested in the heater control cable (temperature) and the "lens" around the controls (I can send you pics to explain what I mean). I would also be interested in a couple of chrome trim bits if they look nice, the ones on the drivers side between the top of the bumper and the fender, drivers side....
wow.. the riv seat backs look just like the ones on a 68 GTO and I think they make repos of those. my coworker has a 68 gto with buckets with the seat release up high on the seat like that and it looks very simmilar. hmm... I don't have a riv nor a GTO can someone verify this? Nate
Rivman I got your emails. 1bad riv Ill take a look at the trim pieces and let you know. Just email me. 69GS400 The motor is a mystery to me. the hood has always been closed since it was parked. The air cleanner was alwyas on. I dont know what kind of mechanical condition its in but ill check and get back to you. Northern Riveria Im a little unsure of the trim pieces you mentioned. send me pics of what you need. That way there is no confusion. On my part.
There are rubber stops on the top corners of the front and rear bumpers. Prevents metal bumper to body contact. If you have them I'll take them.
'68 Riviera SShep71 - thanks for getting back ! Looks like the 'vultures' have settled in - in addition to my emails: Power Window Switch Plates (right/left) what shape is the chrome in ? Minor/Major pitting ? Good / Decent / NFG? If there not to bad - add em to my 'list'. pm or E me. please 'n thanks :TU:
1 bad riv. Are these the pieces you were talking about when you mentioned the pillar cover, and headliner moulding? 3 of the 4 rubber bumpers were there both fronts are there but the drivers side rear was missing. Do you still want them?
