    chryco63 14's or bust!

    Well, they just opened up a brand-y new, cavernous warehouse, so, they should. "Should" being the key word.

    What repro parts are really out there for the 66-70 Rivs? Not a whole lot. I wouldnt get too excited. I dont think it will be any different than the currect CARS Riviera catalog

    I suspect the same, but with more exposure the aftermarket may see there is a demand for not only Riviera parts, but parts for other full size cars as well.

    Can't hurt.

    Is that 3009 or 2009? :pp

    It's cool at least they are planning something for the Rivs. The only think I can think of that would be more frustrating than restoring a 69 GS would be restoring a 69 Riv.

    Maybe?!?

    Good to know I guess.
    The ad in Hemmings reads like it is a sure thing.

    "Reserve your copy of our
    Free Catalog
    Coming soon!"​

    Not, maybe coming soon, if we feel like it.
    :laugh:

    Better order several under aliases, and addresses.
    Just kidding.

    Last time I checked with them they said they were finishing up the Caddy catalog, and the Riv catalog completion was pending the completion of the Cad cat. We're all waiting to see how it turns out!

    I got the Caddy catalog in the mail this week. Lots of good parts, rubber, trim, mechanical, nameplates, etc... More than I had expected. Maybe they are serious about a Buick catalog after all.

    I know they are serious... the COO is a huge Riv fan, and built a '69 a few years ago.. (like 10 years, now that I think about it.. )

    Maybe you've seen it...
