Hi just wondering if there is any Kiwis out there.I'm in Wellington and have got a 1967 Riviera GS and thought I'd try and find out if I have some Buick compony. Cheers Matt
Hi Matt, Thats a beautifull looking Riv you have there. My name is Joe Boonen, I live in tauranga, my 66 riv is ok but needs work to get it to the same standard as yours. As always though money time and parts availability limit what I can do, and of course the good wife always needs to be convinced haha. Nice to see another buick and owner in NZ, all the best Joe
Hi Joe I know what you mean about money / wife My car is in Ok condition still needs lots of work though . But thats part of the game right . I'd love to see some pics of your car . I'v had mine for six months and all I seem to be doing is catching up on the mantinice . New starter motor.new manifold gasgets,new water pump,new timing chane and gears,new dissy,and a completly rebuilt drive shaft .But it's still fun all though it's cost me a bomb .Have you done much work on yours ?

Hi Matt, nice looking car. There are a few in Hawkes Bay. A couple of 37 - 39s , My 56 (project), two 57s, a couple of broken down 57 wagons, a 58 Special, a 67 and a few early 70 Rivieras. Also a late 70's early 80s wagon. Probably a few more in sheds as well.
Hay it's nice to meet you all.It's cool to see such an iconic car brand doing well in NZ .I'd love to see some pic's . Do a bit of a show and tell. Cheers Matt
