Obviously the left side of the car has been hit. There is a used brown door on it and who ever the butcher auto body was they never bothered to jamb the door to ,match the car.
How do you open the hood on these can you help my friend has one but we need help/advice on opining the hood thanks I’m 16 and my name is Deonte Hemphill
The car has been repainted (poorly) you can see it on the doors when opened. I see lumps under the vinyl roof that could be rust or a poorly replaced roof. It could be a good candidate for restoration if there isn't extensive rust under the vinyl. Also just b/c it's a CA car does not automatically mean it's rust free, if you live in San Diego by the water then you can have rust, especially if it's a car from the 60's and if it was parked outside the majority of its life. Get yourself a better camera and why Brookway Investments? Are you insinuating that these cars are investments? Personally I'm not sold on this car and you didn't mention a price.
You really need to up your game on the quality of your videos. It looks like you’ve filmed it through frosted glass. (is this a sales tactic so you can’t see the real condition of the car) This seems typical of car sales videos at the moment. A guy telling you how great everything is with the car , but in reality a lot of the stuff they say is simply not the reality. For example how do you know the body is totally rust free. The answer? You don’t. Paint can hide everything.
I hate to tell you this, but a 1960s car with 90k miles is near the end of its life. Cars simply did not last very long prior to the late 1980s and 1990s. A 100,000 mile car was rare. This Riviera looks like the typical barn find. Original but clearly the car has not been cared for over the years. The engine is a mess.
I don't know where you get that opinion about cars from that period ! I've been driving old Buicks for about 50 years. My 65 Electra has 382.000 miles with the engine never been apart. I don't know what you are driving and I don't care but you better get your facts straight before making comments . If you have a negative opinion about those cars why you bother looking at the videos ?
How are you doing Rob ? I can't tell you how many miles this particular engine will last without hearing it running . According to the seller it is a good running car . From my personal experience having owned almost 60 Buicks since 1975 I never had any engine problems with any one of them , having several of these cars with over 200.000 miles and the 65 Buick Electra with 385.000 miles that I still own . Also agree with you on the reliability of the newer cars , but I've seen a lot of newer vehicles with blown engines also . There was an early 80's Valvoline Motor oil commercial showing a 1970 Buick LeSabre that had just hit 500.000 miles documented by Valvoline with oil changes every 3.000 miles . Thank you
@@christospollakis7358 i am doing fine, thank you. How are you doing? I was just wondering if you have experience with this particular 430ci and high mileage. I own a 69 Riviera with this 430ci and it has 62K miles only. I do read that engines had to be rebuild just around a 100K in the 60's but i also read a Buick 430 can go over 200K without a rebuild.
Great car. Better sitting in my garage.
Nice motor!

BEAUTY of a car but u are mistaken Wes Nichols was the designer of THIS car in early 60s.*!

@@christospollakis7358 Hi, how many miles do you think this 430ci can handle before it is in need of a rebuild? Thanks.
