[marcher]

Heres my 1970 Riviera...

Imported from New Mexico...... Now like this

Would be good to have a Riviera register.. How about it?

Looking very nice AGC, you got any pics of the inside????

Spent the whole day yesterday removing the engine/fuel tank and cleaning the engine bay. Checked the underside.... no welding need (thank god)

Insulation over kill ?????

Hi marcher... really nice Riviera youve got there.... The interior of mine has been removed and sold to a Riviera owner with no interior. Unfortunatly it didnt suite our requirments, but this is what it looked like

May see you at a show one day then we wont feel so "different"!!
