Frenched, Shaved, Candied and Chromed... Your Custom Ride Awaits!
This 1970 Buick Riviera is a one-of-a-kind Custom creation and the Winner of over 100 trophies and commemorative plaques over the last 20 years. She has been featured in multiple publications. This Sleek Beauty is a Rare and Desirable One-Owner Classic has been a Southern Belle for most all of her life.
She comes with her Original 455 ci engine and 3-Speed Turbo-Hydramatic automatic
transmission. She came from the factory with 370 hp @ 4600 and 510 lb-ft @ 2800 rpm,
but that was before her engine was rebuilt.
This baby has only been driven about 13K miles since her rebuild.
Her Beautifully Restored Black Vinyl 1970 Riviera Interior looks fabulous. This Custom Creation was Modified with the Driver's Comfort in mind. Her Custom Interior has Power Windows, Power Driver's Seat and a Kenwood Remote Controlled Stereo,
which is located in the glove box.
As you sit comfortably behind the Custom "Grant" Signature Series Steering Wheel
notice the Custom Mahogany Wood Dash, Center Console, Door Panel Trim and take a closer
look at the gauges. Yep! There's a Custom VDO gauge cluster including turn signal,
emergency brake and high beam indicator lights.
Her interior isn't her only fabulous feature. This lovely lady rolled off the
assembly line painted Sherwood Green with a white vinyl top and matching green interior.
She remained her original color for many years, until the owner decided to show his baby
some love.
Her "Frame-off" restoration began in Georgia in 1992. At this time she was
repainted with a rich "House of Kolor" 3-Stage Brandywine color which brilliantly comes to life when ever the sun shines on it!
Notice that she has No Door Handles or emblems anywhere. She wasn't just painted, she
had her doors and trunk Shaved and her antennas Frenched. Yes, I said Antennas,
plural. A cellular phone was installed during the restoration.
Her Good Looks don't stop with her Yummy Paint and Impeccable Interior. Pop open
the hood and you'll get that feeling of a Kid in a Candy Store!
Chrome, Chrome, Chrome! As far as the eye can see!
From her Air Cleaner to her Hood Release, this engine bay Gleams with an abundance of
Chrome parts. She even has a Chrome Tire Tool set and Chrome Fire Extinguisher in her
Crushed Velour lined trunk for shows.
This Riviera is a one-of-a-kind Custom creation and the Winner of over 100 trophies
and commemorative plaques over the last 20 years. She has been featured in multiple
publications and is just waiting for her new owner to take her home.
She comes with plenty of photos from her Nuts & Bolts, Frame Off Restoration and
