I got a call from a fellow in Thunder Bay Ontario Canada (2 hours from me) that wants to sell his 1978 Buick Rivera. Apparently this is a special edition car, only 100 ish built for Canada and its black and silver in colour. Hes owned it for ~16 years and has had it stored inside for many years. Is this something special or is someone interested in it, cause I can go get pics or details next time I go to Thunder Bay. I don't know how much $ or what shape its in other than it has the 403 engine. Anyone interested?
I'll be damned my folks had a riv that looked similar with 2 tone gold or cream colour, and now i remember it was a 77. Nice car, do you think this a limited build car?

Gord,i've seen numerous Ann.Edit. on ebay and other sites for sale and they don't bring alot of money.Just haven't caught on yet i guess. Tom
Ok, the owner prob thinks hes got something valuable, but alas like many other buicks they just haven't caught on...
Hey Gord - They are sorta rare, but just don't get the big money. Maybe the Tazman would be interested ? ? ? I heard he has way too much free time, and bags of $$$$$$ ! ou: :laugh: :TU:
Hey there Rivman, You know Tazman, he'll want it for a $500 bucks and want it delivered for that price:laugh: I should tell him about it although, just thought I'd find a buick in Thunder Bay that he didn't know about for a change... I missed your cruize night by one day cause Tazman gave me the wrong date when I was visiting family in Ottawa this summer, oh well went to Dairy Queen by the mall anyways for ice cream so it wasn't a total loss. Next summer I'll try hook up with you then hopefully driving the wildcat that Tazman found for me. Gord
Hey you guys You are all having way too much fun!! Tazman is saving all his dollars to hire Guido to "Aquire a 68 Rivy Ottawa and a GSX form the Choke and stash it away in his secret place!!
