    Trying to identify these Riviera Emblems. The Script emblem is part 8791137 and has 4 mounting posts with spring clips. The R in a circle with black background is marked 5955243 with one mounting post in the center. The R in a circle with a white background is marked 1380511-12. Anybody know the application for these?

    The "Riviera" emblem looks to be from a 63-65, fender emblem. The "R" logo with the black backround might be from the hood ornament of a 79-85. And the "R" logo with the white backround might be from a 79-85 Riv on the vinyl top or the interior on the lights. Goodluck :TU:

    Thanks for the reply? I think the 63-65 Emblems have longer mounting posts and use quick nuts instead of spring clips, I'm guessing this is a '70 Hood or Trunk Emblem? The black background emblem I'm guessing is maybe a door panel emblem from a '65? The white background I'm thinking is from the exterior sail panel of a '68-'69? Anybody else have some knowledge regarding these emblems

    The black R may be a 64 taillight emblem but I need to see the back. The Riviera could be 63 - 67 fender depending on the mounting or even a later year. The backs may be important in identifying them.
