    a few months ago i picked up a kinda wrecked 65 riv, with missing driveline and lots of rust. but as i always loved those cars for their great look, i took it. they are rare here in germany, so not much cars to get here.

    i do not want to bore your with lots of pics, for those of you who want to see the current restauration progress (working daily on it), you can see more on my homepage, oldschoolcustoms.de/projekte_in_arbeit.php?id=373&detail=1

    currently i am doing a lot of body work.
    i did manage to get most of the missing parts now, like a 425, st400, driveshaft, cooler ect. but but i am still missing some special parts, like the headlight motor or the hood emblem.

    does anybody know where i can fond those parts? i am not into buick at all, thats my first one.

    as i am not allowed to post any phots yet due to my low post number count, i try to place some photos in here later.

    WOW! That's a lot of rust work, but it looks like it's coming along nicely. I'm sure you'll be able to find whatever parts you need by posing in the parts wanted section. Good Luck:TU:

    this guy does have a 66-67 headlight motor; is this somehow adaptable?
