I have owned a 72 Electra in royal blue and 3 71,72 Riviera. I am currently building a custom 71 Riviera that will look much like the one in these pics except I am taking it to the next level and making a "split window coupe" like the 63 Corvettes. I have often thought about a 71,72 Electra coupe customized like the one in this pic. On a side note I was wondering if anybody on this forum is good at Photoshop. I want to see what the black Riv would look like with 71 or 72 Electra "ventiports" on the hood.
Lots more pictures of that riv in the registry http://boattail-riviera-by-buick.co...ption=vinsearch&doSearch=Sort/Search&q=angelo - the interior is even more spectacular then the exterior look thru the historical sales database there's one either in there or the registry its self with the rectangular hood ventiports and a few with those stick on rounded ones on the fenders,
I've always thought a set of T-tops grafted in to the Boattail would look awesome.. with the split window treatment it would put it over the top
Didnt know if you were aware but the ROA is holding the SE Regional meet in Asheboro next month. May 14-17. Not far from you.
Could you give me some more info on this event or direct me to where I could learn more? Dumb question but what is the "ROA"? Thanks
