Description of 1968 Buick Riviera

To sweeten the pot a little I'm going to include a 455 from a 75 Buick Electra 225 complete with transmission. Car was used in demo derby engine and trans were returned to me. When the engine and trans were pulled car had only 88k miles on it (was my grandma's car no lie). Car is in pretty good shape for it's age had been garage kept for the previous 15 years. A great project car for someone looking for a nice ride. Body is extremely clean having only surface rust and a few minor dents. Engine was rebuilt 15 years ago heads rebuilt trans rebuilt also. I did start it this year for the first time in 14 years and it ran very smooth. Having trouble getting it to start now due mostly to a bad carburetor- it came off of a 75 Buick Electra and had problems then. Also has the HEI from same vehicle along with new plug wires. New master cylinder car has drums all around. Many of the parts I removed from vehicle are in the trunk. Car is missing parts namely a wiper motor headlamp actuators power steering pump and lines body trim pieces etc. Interior is in pretty nice shape with some dashboard components missing. Does have the center console shift. Feel free to contact me with any questions. Deposit of $500 due at auction end payment to be completed via PayPal within 10 days of auction end. No shipping and car cannot be driven currently would need to be trailered. I may have a contact who can assist in that for local purchasers.
