1963 Buick Riviera Custom Cruiser Coupe Arizona Rust Free Beauty on 2040-cars
Chandler, Arizona, United States
|
Up for grabs is my 1963 Buick Riviera. It is a super clean Arizona rust free beauty. The odometer shows 103,500 and I believe that to be accurate after getting thoroughly acquainted with this car. The floor pans, rocker panels, trunk floor is all original and rock solid. The car was repainted in 2000 and still looks great. It isn't showroom perfect by any means, but still looks great. The car was originally white. The wheels are 17x9 Boyd Coddington Venus billet aluminum. The tires are 255/50/17 Nitto NT555 with 750 miles. It will also come with the original wheels and nearly new 225/75/15 whitewalls and hubcaps that are in excellent condition. If you aren't interested in the custom wheels a will work with you on the price. The car sits on 1" lowering springs with new shocks. The front end has polyurethane bushings in the sway bar and front shocks. That made a huge difference. The numbers matching 401 Nailhead runs like a top. Even the choke works. The waterpump is new and so is the radiator. Also the fan clutch and thermostat are as well. Cant be too careful with the cooling system here in AZ. The freeze plugs were done 10 or so years ago. The AC system is complete and looks like it has never been open. It does however blow warm. I guess it should be retrofitted to r134a. The transmission is a Dynaflow and is works smooth and responsive. The differential has new oil as of last week. The brakes are excellent. They operate smooth and evenly. Shoes are at 75% front and 80% rear. All glass is excellent and free from scratches. All gauges work. The interior is very nice and the headliner is near perfect. The radio is new, but it doesn't work. (Fuse?) Many weatherstrip pieces have been replaced. It will come with a large file of receipts, a body service manual, and a chassis service manual specific to the 1963 Buicks. This car gets tons of attention and is an absolute pleasure to drive. I just returned from a 750 mile road trip to Vegas and it worked perfectly. I wouldn't hesitate to jump in and take it back there tomorrow. Feel free to email with any questions., |

What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name
Thu, 07 Aug 2014
The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
Buick might be getting a logo makeover
Fri, 23 Nov 2012General Motors has finished off an extensive model overhaul for its Buick division, but along with its updated cars, the brand might also be getting a new logo. According to the Detroit Free Press, GM North America President Mark Reuss indicated that the Buick tri-shield logo could be getting a makeover, but offered no further information.
It is unlikely Buick will completely redesign or replace its current logo, but the article seems to indicate that it might return to color; although all chrome now, the logo used to feature red, white and blue shields. Head on over to the Detroit Free Press article to look at some past Buick logos including one from 1904.
GM expanding Lansing Lambda CUV plant
Thu, 30 Oct 2014Considering that crossovers are a rapidly growing portion of the US auto market, it's not surprising to hear that General Motors is preparing to build even more of them. The company is investing $63 million to expand its Lansing Delta Township Assembly plant that builds Lambda platform CUVs like the Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave.
According to GM, the expansion will add roughly 263,000 extra square feet of space to the plant. Of that, 181,000 square feet will be for an updated body shop with cutting-edge robots. There will also be 54,000 square feet of additional room in the paint shop and 28,000 square feet of more area for general assembly.
GM isn't saying as much, but there is the possibility that this extra space could allow for additional models produced at the factory. Cadillac reportedly dropped plans to build a three-row SUV on the Lambda platform earlier this year, however, dealers for the luxury brand were recently pitched the possibility of adding large and small CUVs, an ATS convertible or a sedan below the ATS.
