  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. 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

    Thanks mate! Yeah, I just give it a little wipe down if it gets dusty. I really appreciate your continued support of the channel. I hope the videos become good reference points for the 1972 Buick Riviera.

    Great videos, thanks for doing them! As you know, finding boattail-specific information is challenging. I'll definitely review your radio video when I get around to fixing mine (there is a little plastic frame inside of it that dropped down in front of the needle). Should save me about 30 minutes of "figurin' " and a bit of cursing.

    I'm really pleased that it will help you! Yeah, that's exactly why I started doing these videos because it was really hard to find any information out. Luckily everybody on this forum has been incredibly helpful and given me a lot of good advice.

    I think I just figured out why driving today is so boring, All the cars/trucks look the same today, back in the 70's cars were a lot more interesting and exciting to see like your Riv:cool:

    I wonder where Adam went?

    I just noticed that he changed his V8Buick board name from "gnatsum" to V8Adam.
    No more videos on his YouTube channel since 2021.

    I messaged him some time ago via YT because I also wondered where he went, and he said he's just real busy with life, you know.
