California owners who purchased the car from it's original owners
with a thick file of original service records which include the
original owners manuals and Protecto-plate, original California
registrations, receipts for a complete engine rebuild at 78,656

the floor boards, trunk and all the typical rust-prone areas
completely solid and rust-free and the car has no signs of any
major accidents of any kind. The car has obviously always been
garaged and looks very impressive considering it's originality and
age with one decent re-paint in it's original factory 'Arctic
White' color paint and with the original 'Red' vinyl interior in
very good condition throughout although please note that there may
be some further TLC for the fastidious owner in particular non
working air conditioning and some cosmetics such as worn
weatherstripping etc.The rebuilt 425/340HP 'Wildcat' engine is
strong and powerful, the transmission shifts smoothly through the
gears and there are no noticeable oil leaks and the temperature
always remains cool! This is a great opportunity to own a great
daily driving example of an always rust free 1964 Buick Riviera.One
of the outstanding GM designs of the sixties, reflecting the
styling supremo of Bill Mitchell with a masterful blend of curves
and razor-edges, dubbed the anti-Thunderbird and respected by an
army of industrial designers as an architectural landmark of the
U.S industry and which has high repute amongst collectors for both
it's beautiful lines and smooth fast performance for a luxury
coupe. "One of the most beautiful cars America ever built" as
stated by none other than Sergio Pininfarina of Ferrari design fame
at it's debut at the Paris auto show in 1963. This landmark design
would continue for only two years until 1964 before a hidden
headlight change in 1965 but with all these 63-65 model cars
boasting 'Milestone Car' status.In summary, this is one great
collectible classic car ready to enjoy today - an original southern
California two family owned since new car with no rust and always
garaged - a perfect candidate for the Buick or classic American car
enthusiast to fully restore or simply drive as it is and a
sure-fire investment that's sure to appreciate over the years for
any classic American sixties car collector!
