Vehicle Description
Worldwide Vintage Autos is pleased to present this 1965 Buick
Riviera.�
HISTORY
In 1965 the 401�cu�in (6.6�l) V8 returned as the standard engine,
and the "Gran Sport" version made its debut, powered by the Super
Wildcat V8 and outfitted with a more aggressive 3.42 axle ratio and
stiffer, heavy-duty suspension. The Super Turbine 400 transmission
retained its variable pitch torque converter, but was fitted with a
three-speed gear selector. The stock dual exhaust pipes were
increased from 2.0 inches (51�mm) to 2.25 inches (57�mm) inside
diameter and had fewer turns to reduce backpressure. Externally,
the headlamps were hidden behind clamshell doors in the leading
edges of each fender, as had been in the original design. The
non-functional side scoops between the doors and rear wheel arches
were removed, and the taillights moved from the body into the rear
bumper.�A�vinyl roof�became available as an option, initially
offered only in black, and the tilt steering wheel optional in
previous years was now standard equipment.
Total sales for the 1963-1965 model years was a respectable
112,244. The Riviera was extremely well received from all quarters
and considered a great success, giving the Thunderbird its first
real competition as America's preeminent�personal luxury car.
