    Riviera is in Los Angeles. Asking $6,500 in its current condition.

    This Riv is 100% complete. Please see second and third pics with all trim on it before disassembly. I've removed all of the trim and interior panels to prep for paint. It's currently in epoxy primer, ready for wet-sanding and finish color. If I go to the cost and trouble to paint it, it will be much more expensive, and it may not be the color you want. Original color is Buick code "V", which is a greenish charcoal. All door jambs and under trunk lid are already this color. Car runs, drives and stops. All lights work, except the headlights don't hide (a common issue with the vacuum canisters). Heat works (new heater core); I'm told the A/C works, but there was a pressure leak when I put a belt on the compressor, so it probably needs to be cleaned out.

    All power windows work properly. Upholstery is good except for the driver's seat; headliner is great; new sail panels, carpet is new, vinyl top is new. All trim fasteners are labeled - bagged and tagged. Lots of new clips and retainers as well. Also new door seals and new roof rail seals (coiled and wrapped).

    Original radio works, but is currently out of the dash to deal with some wiring behind it. I've added a Bluetooth head unit, hidden in the console, plus 2 6X9 speakers in boxes on the rear seats (not attached, so they can be moved around). You can see the speaker wiring hasn't yet been tucked under the back seat.

    Engine (430 cid) has been rebuilt by a previous owner, but I have no documentation. Custom 2.5" aluminized exhaust with Flowmasters; runs loud and proud. You can see by the pics that they spent some serious money on the engine (Edelbrock intake and carb are around $800 alone). Tires are brand new. Lots of new rubber yet to be installed. Rust-through in the spare tire well in the trunk will need to be patched, but it's minor. Just paid for new annual registration.

    I have lots of information about this car, so ask any questions. Here's the local LA Craigslist ad so you can see all pics: https://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv/cto/d/valley-village-1968-buick-riviera-ready/7058510570.html
