Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is proud to present this
1970 Buick Riviera finished in Seamist Green and features a dark
green landau top. The second-gen Riviera was all about size, and in
its final year, these really maximized it. The quad headlights were
stretched to the edges, and there's a wide grille in-between that
reaches out beyond the sheet metal. In the rear, the form-fitting
bumper looks like an extension of the fender as it stretches well
beyond the dual exhaust tips. Powering this cruiser is a 455CID V8
with a FiTech electronic fuel injection and MSD ignition, backed by
a Turbo 400 automatic transmission. So, it moves this big Buick
with the kind of power delivery that's equal parts muscle car and
luxury coupe, and with power steering, power brakes, and a comfy
ride, this classic remains a fine cruiser. The green interior
features a front bench seat with a fold-down armrest, woodgrain
trim on the dashboard and door panels, and green carpeting. The
two-spoke steering wheel fronts the instrument panel that features
a square 120MPH speedometer, and auxiliary gauges on either side
for fuel level and coolant temperature. The odometer shows 64k
miles that is believed to be original. Driving is like riding on a
cloud, "a very powerful cloud" and you will not have to worry when
you need to pass that slow driver in the right lane, all the power
is at the pedal.
