Description
Lot #374 - This sharp custom Riviera is an all-steel personal luxury coupe that’s undergone a comprehensive, ground-up restoration. The car’s pale yellow 2-stage paint spotlights custom-tailored metalwork that includes a unique hood, reworked fasciae and a reimagined decklid. The theme of customization carries over to a one-off interior, where a fabricated dash joins a fabricated console to frame a B&M shifter, Auto Meter telemetry, Alpine audio and Vintage Air climate control. The driver is greeted by a power-adjustable seat, a polished and partially wrapped tilt steering wheel. This custom is powered by a 409ci Chevrolet V8 engine that’s been upgraded with hardware like coated Edelbrock headers, a polished Edelbrock intake, Edelbrock Performer RPM heads and dual Edelbrock carburetors. That big block is paired with a Turbo-Hydramatic 350 3-speed automatic transmission. A modified suspension, independent up front and 4-bar out back, supports RideTech ShockWave air ride. The stance is enhanced by Billet Specialties Vintec wheels, which wear wide Mickey Thompson tires. In addition, this Riviera features power rack & pinion steering and 4-wheel power disc brakes.
