1965 Buick Riviera

This black-on-black Super Wildcat powered 1965 Buick Riviera GS epitomizes the Buick tradition of luxury with a special emphasis on performance. The Super Wildcat LX code engine is a 425ci torque monster with dual 4-barrels. Buick conservatively rated it at 360 horsepower. The secret is the big 465 lb-ft of torque. The engine is dressed with cast aluminum valve covers and a big chrome dual-snorkel air cleaner. This powerplant doesnt fly solo, as a Super Turbo 400 automatic with a variable pitch converter and a 3.42 Posi rear help optimize the performance of the big V8. A dual exhaust system with big 2 inch pipes help the engine breathe while emitting just the right tones. The Gran Sport is a well-equipped car offering air conditioning, power steering and brakes, power windows, cruise control, and tilt steering. The factory AM/FM radio remains in place too. Befitting a top of the line Buick, the interior is rich and plush with bucket seats, a stylish center console, and burl wood accents throughout. A rear seat armrest is done in such a way as to almost form bucket seats for passengers riding in back. From the hideaway headlights to the chrome Buick Rallyes to the dual chrome exhaust tips, this 1965 Buick Riviera GS combines high style and high performance so that many say yes to the famous question, Wouldnt you really rather have a Buick?
