from Budapest

Hi Guys,

I've just found the forum while looking for information about Rivieras. I bought an 1969 Riviera GS and just shipped overseas to Hungary. After a quick inspection it seems a pretty solid and rust free car, hopefully it will be back on the road again next spring. Of course we have a lot of things to do on it. The goal is to keep it original inside and out.

Some fresh photos:

 

Very nice! Welcome to the Forum.

 

The potential for issues under a vinyl top is a major risk for your Riviera.

Did the container come down the Danube?

 

Yeah. Wind teared the top while we moved it on a trailer and almost the whole top was exposed and seemed almost rust free. Hopefully it will look good around the back window too. We'll find out soon.

 

Welcome from Georgia, US!

My wife and I plan to travel to Budapest in 2019 and cruise up the Danube to Munich. Budapest is a city with a lot of history.

I am interested in visiting sites related to WW II.
