Vehicle Description
The 1967 Buick Rivera was a true star at General Motors. This was
the only personal luxury E-body cruiser with rear-wheel drive, and
this was the first year for the new V8. That means you can get a
big classic cruiser with all the best luxury features - including
A/C - for quite a nice price.
1967 was a was a great design that kept familiar cues from the
iconic '65 Riviera, including hidden headlights and a sporty rear
fender kick-up in the design. But now this second-generation coupe
had a larger and more unique presence. The lines seemed to stress
both performance and elegance all at one. The well-fitting panels
on this example show off the razor's edge creases in the
sheetmetal. And the chrome bumpers fit so well into the overall
design that these were some of the best style lines to ever hit the
road. The factory-correct Riviera Fawn paint has been given a
quality respray to highlight all these features when the sunlight
hits this coupe. And there's even a black vinyl roof for true
classic car lavishness.
The Riviera is all about being a personal luxury machine. So while
there's plenty of room for the passengers to enjoy, the driver will
always be king. That's why the factory-correct white interior
features an armrest up front for individual comfort. You'll love
slipping behind the three-spoke steering wheel and facing the
unique factory gauges, including the barrel-type speedometer.
Luxury also means loaded with features. This includes a tilt wheel,
rear defogger, upgraded AM/FM stereo, and provisions for a power
seat. You also get power windows to easily show of that pillarless
hardtop profile without ever leaving the driver's seat. And since
the factory air conditioning has been upgraded to modern R134a, you
get to stay cool with the windows down even in the summer.
Buick's 430 cubic-inch V8 was all-new for this year, and it became
legendary for massive torque production. This big block is topped
with a four-barrel carburetor, and so it moves this big Buick with
the kind of power delivery that's equal parts muscle car and luxury
coupe. It's quite smooth with just enough of a rumble from the dual
exhaust to remind everyone big Buicks have big power. The V8 is
year-correct, and it has quite a correct presentation with bright
Dante Red paint on the block, shining valve covers, and correct
decals. It's mated to the smooth three-speed automatic
transmission. Plus, with power steering, power brakes, and modern
Michelin tires on the Buick Rallye wheels, this classic remains a
fine cruiser.
This is a big style and big power classic, and the best part is
it's budget-priced. So you don't have to live on the Riviera to own
this Riviera. Call today!!!
