This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    The next 2 pictures are of my Grandson. I bought him a 1965 Rivera Gran Sport For the Buick gathering at CVS for 1 2 9 5. That's $12.95 for us adults. If you want one they are at CVS. Some stores didn't have any Riveras. You might have to search around. They come in red, silver, and tan. They're also selling a 1956 Century police car.

    The next pictures are from a car show Sunday morning. I love Aqua-cars! I met 3 Buick people outside and they said they'd come to the gathering next year. I met another GS person inside. He has a GS and a Rivera. Got his phone number. The El Camino had a Buick 430 in it. Interesting.

    Then a couple very nice oldies inside. Then my wife took my picture as we were leaving.

    As a naval architect, an Amphi-Car is my dream ride. It just seems like I ought to have one.

    I have posted these two reviews before:
    "Fastest car in the water, fastest boat on land."
    "A bad car and a worse boat."

    Someday, somehow, I am going to own one.

    Got his number "up north Steve?" If the guy was around his car I'd definitely invite him for a gathering!
