1983 Buick Riviera Convertible Description

There were less than 1,700 1983 Buick Riviera convertibles built with the desirable V8 engine, hich means the ones that survive in this kind of original condition today are quite rare. So, he value price on this low-production numbers-matching droptop is just the cherry on top.This Riviera convertible is a rare piece of expensive history. The American carmakers were not willing to get directly in the softtop game in the early 1980s. Plus, ew people were willing to pay nearly double the Riviera coupe's price that it took to pluck a car off the assembly line and let the professionals at ASC do their custom softtop magic. But the few who did this ended up with a convertible that was like owning a fully custom car backed by a factory warranty. That's why this special Buick has been cared for so well, nd the sheetmetal has stayed so straight. You can see this in the trim running down the sides, nd bumpers that retain their bi-level design. All the emblems are present, enses are beautifully clear, nd it even still has the original wire wheel covers with special center insignia. Overall, his custom convertible presents very nicely, ith paintwork that looks original enough that people will believe you have a rare survivor. The burgundy leather interior is a great complementing standout color to the bright white exterior. It appears to be original, nd it still matches nicely on the seats, arpets, nd dash. The burled walnut veneer is some of the most handsome trim for any car in the 80s, nd as expected with such an expensive convertible, t came loaded. This one has power seats, ower windows, ilt wheel, ruise control, he original AM/FM/cassette stereo, rovisions for air conditioning, nd a power convertible top. In other words, t has everything you want for a cool comfortable droptop cruiser. Under the hood is the optional 307 cubic inch V8. It looks so honest that we believe the mileage is correct, nd we suspect the powerplant is original to this car. The V8 motor was a valuable piece to give the Riviera the right kind of torque to move it around with authority. The attitude on this one was to be the comfortable cruiser that took the place of the Cadillac convertible that ceased production a few years prior. That's why it came with luxury driving features like the grand touring suspension, nd four-speed overdrive automatic transmission. This is the kind of classic that you're not intimidated to take on the long trips, hanks to power steering and four-wheel disc brakes.This rare Riviera convertible has been well maintained, nd it even comes with the receipts as proof. It will be hard to find a better deal on a low-volume vintage convertible out there. Call now!!
