Description of 1953 Buick Riviera Super Riviera

Solid straight car. Odometer shows just over 23k miles. This car is plated, insured, and in my name. Runs, drives and shifts smooth. We cruised it all day in the hot August sun last summer at "Cruisin Hines", with no issues. Older Pro body modifications and paint. Chrome parts sent out for re-chroming and stainless trim sent to be re-polished. (Very Expensive). Awesome '56 Packard tail light fins and rear exhaust thru bumper from carribbean convertible. 1948 Lincoln door handle push buttons, and rounded hood corners. Mostly original interior, drivetrain and chassis in good useable condition, but showing normal wear. Solid floors and frame with newer fuel and brake lines. Dropped spindles and radial wide white's with '57 caddy hubcaps. Factory 12 volt electrical, and first year for the Nailhead V8. Horn-Speedometer-Fuel-Temp-Oil gauges work fine. Dash turn signals also light up and blink. Original radio and clock do not work, but the newer AM/FM CD under the dash works and sounds great. Interior dome light works too. The Buick has nice glass throughout, and all the windows roll up/down easy and smooth. The bottoms of the doors and pinch welds are solid and nice. Unexpectedly, the pictures and video of the Buick do not do it justice. This car is a Stunning, Jaw dropping show stopper in person. Runs, drives, steers and stops like a 63 year old car. Sell or Trad plus cash. Project trad okay too. You can call with questions 517-797-9735. I'm pretty easy to talk to. What'cha got? I reserve the right to end auction early for any reason, as it is also for sale locally. Buy pays all expenses.
