1968 Buick Riviera

There is a certain poetry to a big Buick that cruises by with presence and a hint of theater. This Riviera wears that statement well, the kind of car that turns a routine drive into an occasion and invites you into a slower, more deliberate kind of enjoyment. It carries tasteful period upgrades with a full repaint in factory correct Arctic White, alongside its classic lines, and the story shows in the details from the vinyl top to the stereo that still plays. If you want to own a memorable piece of late 1960s American luxury that charms on sight and sound, consider this 1968 Buick Riviera GS. Step inside and you are greeted by Deluxe Black vinyl Strat-o-bench seat that recalls longer, more comfortable drives. The interior is largely correct and retains factory cues including power windows, power locks, tilt column and remote mirror. An AM radio remains in the dash while an 8-track and equalizer mounted under the dash feed Panasonic speakers on the driver side kick panel. An aftermarket gauge cluster sits above the steering column and adds a touch of driver info while keeping the cabin period appropriate. Some vintage add-ons are present, and overall the cabin shows well with normal wear. Under the hood lives a 430 cubic inch V8 from 1969 with an estimated output around 360 horsepower and roughly 475 ft-lbs of torque. Power goes through a three-speed TH400 automatic transmission and a 10-bolt rear axle, and the car is equipped with power steering and factory power drum brakes front and rear. Dual exhaust, functioning flip-up headlights and 15 inch wheels wrapped in 235/70R15 BFGoodrich tires provide the stance and sound to match the Rivieras personality.
