I think that Riviera looked beautiful the way it was

[@beauxr.benoit1374]

Your right and there was noyhing wrong with the engine either, but this car has regretfully ended up in the hands of Gas Monkey. They have to make it "better". Yes, that means a downgarde to a Chevy motor. I am not saying something bad about the motor, it is just that it belongs in a Chevy. Thanks to relatives I am kind of a stickker for matching brands of parts to certain cars. Would you be okay with putting an LS into a 1957 Oldsmobile? I wouldn't.

[@Royal_dj_ent]

Opinions are worth $0. I think they know what they’re doing. The better shape the canvas the less time it takes less labor to do a build. Without these builds the channel and content wouldn’t stay afloat.

[@nascarfan88ta]

Just repaint it, tune the motor up

[@canadaeast8358]

Yup it did

[@stanleyszymanowski8793]

Richard right that car is beautiful fixed up

[@carbonfibercreationswashin7213]

Riviera - atrosity

[@billrivenbark8983]

The young guys in this crew have no idea what classic good looks mean. I’d put my older guys on it.

[@kellyschuster5903]

Hell yeah get you some of that

[@eazyridin7283]

Congrats to all the monkeys that were thrown in the national fire 🔥. I hope all y’all doin well . If not come to Christiansburg va n fix my truck . Plz 😆

[@yrtracingteam106]

Tis is a gorgeous fabulous looking car! I just love it!! Great! But just keep it stock ✌🏼😎

[@jamiebizness1]

What are these guys talking about that car is a beauty . One of my dream cars

[@gianicasarini2060]

Good ! Richard Rawlings 2022

[@66Pipes66]

Richard has forgotten Counts Customs did a gorgeous,unforgettable Riviera for Sema already.

[@tomkotter1181]

This is the same car, I believe. This staff has been gone for a while.

[@bosshogg4324]

Bumpers good...now boat tail split window....

[@icebreakers8378]

Those cars are clean

[@cactuscooler48]

What ever happened with this build? Hardly any updates since it stop being a Discovery show...

[@pawpawg7358]

it is still unfinished sitting in the middle of the gas monkey gift shop. He said on an update it wont be finished unless someone wants to pay for it first. With all the "monkeys" gone I dont see it ever being finished there.

[@nicolasgaudiano5065]

Where are this increíble & talento bunch of car BILDERS are..? They just disapeared.....?

[@billyosborn5348]

The way they took this car part makes him look like a budget idiots, now I know why the show ended!

[@chuckbello9969]

I liked the car stock

[@beauxr.benoit1374]

To some people including me, prefer the size of this car over the 'Vette. I look at a 'Vette an see a safety hazzard, I just prefer bigger muscle cars. A Gen one Pontiac Firebird? Nope, I'll take a Catalina of the same year.

[@ricikoleoleoricko3949]

Nice

[@jtwig9311]

Counts customs built a badass Riviera. ...had a killer paint job.

[@1966425]

Hate seeing boattails butchered. They look great stock.

[@astronautdolphindetective6908]

as long as its done right its cool but yeah i love pretty much every old car. they had so much style vs. today where everything looks the same

[@zionkid420]

I mean I'm only 40 and I feel like these guys must all be super young then because I totally get it.

[@williamburke1365]

This car is all cool by itself

[@jarnosaarinen4583]

10 years ago!

[@craignewman6709]

Now they have to chop the windshield an inch

[@RagdollRacingInc]

Yeeeeeeew 🤙

[@deanlutgert8292]

Bamboo cream is the color

[@markwilliams5606]

Miss your Show! Richard Rawlings legend. Maybe You-tube could get you a show. Still watch your Show.

[@TheAslakVind]

Pretty old episode.

[@nickchristensen2335]

What ever happened to the bus! It was supposed to be done Christmas 2021.

[@lloydholland9522]

I'm with the guy that made the other comment on here I like the Riviera the way it was I think it could be painted a different color and the interior change for sure depending on the color would depend on the rims what color they were and what type of rims but you guys do whatever you're going to do of course I'll finish watching it you probably won't have it all done in 9 minutes and I know this video has been put out the f****** a year ago I guess

[@englishcowboy9155]

how come this is 2022 ? thought all the old crew had long gone ??

[@idantheman1354]

Dont leave out the fiber optic fender ljghts.and vigilight rear light monitor .i .buy caps and back light off ebay..use cadilac wires to make a set..... 68 riv most had them lights..]

[@TheBlueberry606]

Oh my God in Heaven. They are chopping up a Rivera? Waste, hast? I hope not.

[@boostedsaleen6146]

So hard the car sits unfinished at GMG

[@xbpete8865]

car will never be finished, too butt hurt about the datsun that got caught on fire to spend that kind of money again lol

[@montygraham145]

Okay, after seeing the drawing I gotta say that's gonna be cool.

[@SD-pi9co]

A great example of a car that they ruined.

[@perry92964]

yup, this would have been ok if the car came from a barn or junk yard that needed massive work to get just "nice"

[@garylcampbell9964]

I thought Richard wend under. Poor sales.

[@djbillye4943]

forgotten footage from 1996 just to gain a payment sad days

[@jcerullo5015]

Did they ever finish this car

[@remodelingjames]

I love it … gotta take a risk sometimes , man his employees are so negative!

[@lloydholland9522]

You drop it to the ground I wouldn't give it $10 for it and I know that's just me but there's a million other guys like me

[@montygraham145]

Why molest a pristine classic. You use one already molested. Just saying!

[@youteo3596]

I could not agree more. Some people just can't leave things alone and like you said find one already messed with if you're going full custom

[@humourshoe6405]

It makes me really sad to see these gorgeous land yachts chopped up too, the boat tails were so cool an unique for the time

[@perry92964]

yup this must be the tv show mentality where they do dumb things for ratings

[@TheReinoPaasonen]

This is years old project what never finished.

[@robbiesmith6417]

Anybody that don't love that car has no taste

[@joeedwards9721]

I'm all for custom cars and hotrods, I own and build them myself, I also love classic cars, this was too nice to chop, ruined it. Sad..

[@kylewashington5567]

Absolutely correct 👍

[@boisedynaa]

Do people really have respect for this dude? He’s Dennis’s follower.

[@Castiel1118]

where a fuk is this car now ????

[@RPmotorcars]

Sitting unfinished in the GMG gift shop on display

[@michaelnewton-1989]

Theu never even finished it.

[@reinventingthemonkey]

I would have left it the way it was.

[@2ndamendment684]

What ever happened to this crew?

[@saZenMusic]

Richard　以外のスタッフって何処行っちゃったの？😢色々調べたけど　ん〜😔何方か教えて〜😭

[@tonyrodriguez_]

Should have been an original restoration and auction

[@donnywenner4998]

Car was done 2 years ago. DUM DUM

[@JamesAllmond]

Typical car destroyer. Take a nice car and rest-mod it, when it, in the long run, has more worth stock. Perfect car, "I think it is cool", let's destroy it. Sorry, fail.

[@shaunsmith4856]

First comment

[@Grandpa_Grinch]

Yet you didn't actually comment anything about the video

[@hippydippy]

BIG WHOOP! Get a life Sparky...LMAO!!!

[@michaelmaas5544]

🏆

[@albrown1812]

Even the sketch was unattractive 🤨
