1965 Buick Riviera

Description1963-1965 Riviera met with the approval of Jaguar founder and designer Sir William Lyons, who said that Bill Mitchell had done 'a very wonderful job.' In addition, Sergio Pininfarina declared it 'one of the most beautiful American cars ever built; it has marked a very impressive return to simplicity of American car design.' Designer, Raymond Loewy said the Riviera was 'the handsomest American production car-apart from his Avanti.' The first-generation Riviera is considered a styling landmark, and is quite collectible today. Styling changes for 1965 included the hidden headlamps per the original design. The scoops located behind the doors and rear wheel arches were removed. The scoops had been for visual purposes only and did not provide any functionality so the removal did not pose any threats to overheating. The taillights were now incorporated into the bumper rather than the body. Tilt steering wheel was now standard and a black vinyl roof was added to the list of options. Our 1965 Riviera is as Classy, Muscular, and Desirable as is Well Built and Solid.
