For Sale: 1965 Buick Riviera in Kentwood, Michigan

Vehicle Description

• This vehicle is located at our Indianapolis facility - 2461 Reeves Rd #194, Plainfield, IN 46168 •

This 1965 Buick Riviera GS combines the unmistakable styling of Buick's first-generation personal luxury coupe with a clean, lowered stance and a strong list of desirable equipment. Finished in white over a tan leather interior, the Riviera retains its elegant mid-century character while the polished wheels and adjustable air suspension give it a more aggressive presence.

Power comes from Buick's 425ci V8 paired with an automatic transmission. The engine is currently configured with a single four-barrel carburetor, while the original dual-quad intake manifold is included with the sale. Power steering and power brakes add to its comfortable cruising manners, making this Riviera well suited for relaxed drives and local shows. The car shows approximately 63,000 miles, which are said to be original.

Inside, the tan leather interior complements the white exterior nicely and retains the Riviera's distinctive wraparound cockpit design. Woodgrain trim, bucket seating, center console, and the sweeping dashboard capture the upscale character that made the Riviera one of Buick's most distinctive models of the era. An aftermarket steering wheel is currently fitted, and the original steering wheel is included with the car.

One of the biggest upgrades is the full air-ride suspension system. The setup features new dual compressors and a large air tank mounted neatly in the trunk, allowing the Riviera to sit exceptionally low when parked while retaining adjustable ride height when needed.

Adding to its history, this Riviera spent its life in California and Arizona until approximately six months ago and remained within the same family for more than 30 years. The inclusion of the original dual-quad intake manifold and steering wheel also gives the next owner the opportunity to return key elements of the car closer to its original configuration. The combination of long-term ownership, Southwestern history, 425ci V8 power, and its tasteful modifications makes this 1965 Riviera GS a distinctive example of one of Buick's most celebrated designs.
