Beautiful 1st Gen Riviera. The only place that you will see "Buick" on here, is on the radio. I don't believe that "Buick" is anywhere else in the interior or the exterior. That is because there was debate as to whether this was going to be a "Cadillac LaSalle". But that decision was nixed and the rest as they say, is part of Buick history. These are some of my favorite vehicles, the design is timeless!

A real beauty! The car of the year in 63 was the AMC Rambler. Suprisingly.

Timeless styling. For me the American automobiles of the 60’s are the nicest. Look at the Riv, Toronado, Eldorado, nuff said. The 445 was the torque btw. White with black guts or reversed is the nicest imo.

Point of interest. You call it a 445. That is the torque rating for a 401 cubic inch engine. The engine installed is a Wildcat. The Super Wildcat is the dual quad engine, which I don't think this is. Also I think there's is a bad drive gear on the passenger vent window. I replaced the ones on my 64 which formerly needed the "assist" to get them started on their activation. The new gears are bronze (same as like-year Cadillac) The lovely thing about these cars is that the door SKINS are removable so you can easily access everything from the outside. You CANNOT service anything from there inside. I made a KZbin video on how to diagnose and replaced the vent gear. Suffer through it for some insight. GLWTA!!

@@reallyaintbuynit2018 Hey, here is an idea, watch all the videos I have posted on this car and you will CLEARLY see that the engine was swapped. And you do realize the carb and intake is not what makes the engine. Bottom end is the SUPER WILDCAT 465.
