    I am new to the group and have just obtained a 1965 Riviera that is highly optioned with cruise, auto headlight beam adjuster, newer A/C compressor with R134, 4 note horns (not currently installed), original 401 rebuilt about 25,000 miles ago, rear seat belts and arm rest, rear defrost, trunk release, and power driver's seat.

    Also has rear seat lift up armrest and rear window defroster...and maybe the very rare factory installed rear seat belts....post a pic of the Fisher Body tag above the power brake booster and I can tell you if the rear belts were factory installed or added at some point.
    Good luck with your new ride,
    Tom

    You had me at '65 Riv. One of my absolute dream vehicles. And I don't care if the doors are falling off and the engine is running on one cylinder. As long as the clams work.

    Then I guess I owe you a beer. Maybe several beers.

    One forum you need to join. Well worth the $$$ is the ROA. Riviera Owners Association.

    Thanks.

    Mine is going into the body shop to fix leaking around the windshield and rear glass.

    While in there they are going to sand blast the frame and fix any rust it has.

    I will look into this.
