1972 Buick Riviera GS Stage 1 for sale
#'s matching everything. I have receipts for $40k in work done to the car.
It's NOT a concours car, but way better than a daily driver.
Paint is great sans a few chips.
Body is straight & has silver leaf pinstripe where the previous owner removed the factory trim.
Car is water tight/no leaky windiws; they are tinted as well.
Factory GS (see the vin code)
3:42 posi which i swapped for 2:91 posi for better Hwy driving.
I changed the leaky rear main seal & put new rods n mains in at that time. They were the original ones & I plastigauged the new bearings and they were within stock tolerances so I didn't have to put over sized bearings in.
In fact, the factory rods n mains in took out weren't worn at all! The odometer shows 67k, but I'm guessing it is 167k. Either the previous owners used good oil n filter or maybe it really is 67k.
