When I was in high school I had to pass a Buick dealership while walking to school. I would inspect every new Riviera that came on the lot. My favorite color was called "Coral Reef". They didn't build too many of them that color and I've never seen one that has been saved. Just down the street was the Ford and Studebaker dealers so I kept close tabs on the Thunderbird's and Avant's. In fact when I turned 16 I used my Uncle's '63 Thunderbird to take my driving test. Those were real automobiles .Overall '63 was my favorite year for the auto industry. Awesome cars! Thanks Lou.
I’m a huge Riviera fan and we have owned two 65’s. I really like the 64’s better. I love the headlight pods that glow when the headlights are on. The 64’s don’t have the troublesome headlight doors that are on the 65’s and all of the 64’s came with the 425 340 HP engines. Fantastic cars in every respect. Kudos to this great facility for doing the first class reproduction parts. This is a nice car but really a stripper. No air conditioning and not even power windows. Strange because it does have the deluxe interior.
Next, to the 1965 hidden clamshell headlamps, the 1964 is a very beautiful car. I don't think WHITE does it justice out of all the amazing colors Buick offered on this car. Bill Mitchell's design of the 1963-1965 Riveria, in my opinion, holds the candle to all other designs. This shape and body is so gorgeous and unique that you can't drive this car anywhere without people stopping and staring. Good job Lou!
@@loucostabile The question being then, with all of the time and money spent on remodeling, why isn't time taken to repair something as simple as the clock? Or is it more complicated than it seems?
Very nice 1964 Riv! I prefer the 1965 because I love the hidden clam shall headlights. Nice body style But was so surprised at no power windows or locks on this one. Very nice car Lou!

It was a great time for GM. Not only did you have the all new 63 Corvette Stingray , Buick debuted the 63 Buick Riviera. A classic from day one. The 63-65 Riviera is a gorgeous automobile. I have seen a couple of them. The 64 I saw was a 70k mile original one owner car. The interior was blue. Same seat pattern but the door panels were a bit different. No wood grain insets or on the console . The console had a black material inset and just above the shifter was a shiny plaque with Built For and the original owners name. It lacked the power seats but was equiped with power windows , power vent windows , and AC. It was a really gorgeous survivor with excellent paint and flawless interior but showing a bit of wear under hood . It's cool to see these cars. Takes you back to another time.
Hey Lou!! As I mentioned before, I am not so much a BUICK guy. But their are a few that I REALLY LIKE. This is one. This Gen. Rivera is just so classy. The light green version of this is just jaw dropping. The console and dash work is so nice. Some of the boat tail era Rivs. are not bad but this first Gen. Dressed up is just lovely. You can see they went after Thunderbird. GM did a outstanding job with the first Gen. Rivera, and the Gran Prix. Just awesome Lou.
I’m a HUGE Riviera fan and have owned two of them. This one is extra nice but wow, what a stripper! Surprised someone would order the deluxe interior but no Air Conditioning or even power windows! Need to put a stock muffler back on if you can find one. They were HUGE and they held water. Very expensive back in the day.

That's a very lovely example of a bankers hot rod if I've ever seen one! Just a gorgeous design and she sounds like she's a stout little runner too. Thanks again guys! ▪☆☆☆▪
Fantastic Lou. I have pretty much the same car but with air con and electric windows. The car shown has delux interior but the power seat control has been mounted on the side of the console instead on on the arm rest. I'd say someone has added this later as it would have been easier to retro fit that way. I've bought quite a few parts for mine from OPGI.
hi Lou thanks again for sharing another beauty; love the Riviera, even the grand master Pininfarina said it was one of the most beautiful american car ever.
The Riviera was the most noticed car on the road, I've had several Riviera's of many different years n I really luved them all because they got the most beautiful lines, features, powerful, and drive like no other, I've got to say the Boatails (71-73) is the ones that inspires me the most, I just spent the last 3 years restoring my 72 Riviera GS Stage 1 since 1984 . Of course I bought good quality parts through Original Parts Group and was always great guy's on the phone for my dumb questions, n got my parts quickly. I would like to give the Rivi, and OPG 5 ☆☆☆☆☆'s
Sharpest 64 Riv. ive ever seen ! the owner of this classic will be blessed car doesnt have power windows to act up ! those can be a real PITA on classic cars.... I know. total classy car .... thanks for vid !
Hello Lou Amazing looking car's and this One is Stunning Quality Car l love them Side lights and the Beautiful looking Dash instruments thanks for the Video
Wonderful car Lou , did you know that this car was going to be a Cadillac ,they didn't want it so Buick built it . A Bill Mitchell master piece . GM was still building the best cars in the world in the early sixties. People often called these 63-65 Riv's the Doctors ( rich person's) muscle car. Quiet a few were exported to Australia as we had no locally produced V8 coupes until 1968, they were converted to right hand drive for our market and you had to have serious cash to afford one. love it. Cheers steve
Hi Steven Carboni, Glad you enjoy this "Wonderful" car :-) I had heard some stories to that effect regarding Cadillac, and your comment is a nice reminder. Thank you for viewing and sharing your knowledge, Lou
I especially like that dual door open feature! Overall this car could easily have passed for 69 up to 73 models. But thats just one old fart's opinion. Beautiful car. Lovin' that interior! While not a deal breaker - at 5:38 that's always been a middle range pet peve of mine when the arrangement of the steering wheel ends up at a 45 or upside down when the wheels are pointing straight. For years I worked on just not paying attention to it when I get in a car. If I notice it, it almost drives me nuts. And it's always a short trip. :-) PSSST - Lou - that wiggle stick adjustment tingy on the side of the console.., its the passenger side ejection seat, and that means it was owned my James Bond. Hey., I'm old., and I can say crazy stuff like that. :-)
Thanks, Lou. These cars are beautiful, seeing them never gets old. This one even sounds a little "Chris Craftier" than usual - must be that mahogany in the interior :-)
Was there ever a more beautiful GT for the money than the 64 Buick Riviera? But as I recall the 465 was a dual quad with a chrome dual snorkle air cleaner.

How to tell 1963 and 1964 Rivieras apart? Look at the rear for these details: B U I C K letters on the middle edge of the trunk lid, and Buick tri-shield emblems on the taillight lenses (1963); Riviera script on the right side of the trunk lid and oval "R" logos on each taillight lens (1964). (6/12/2021)
I’ve owned two 65’s and I almost prefer the 64’s. No troublesome headlight covers. The 425 engines with 340 HP were standard while the 65’s had the 401 325 hp standard. 65’s had a much better transmission. All three years from 63-65 had different transmissions. This one has deluxe interior but no power windows or many other options. No air conditioning! They never seem to sound good without the stock muffler. Those mufflers were HUGE and VERY expensive. Probably no longer available?
Bu güzel 1964 Buick Riviera Otomobil Türk Sinemasının Çirkin Kralı Yılmaz GÜNEY'in 1960'lı yıllarda kullanmış olduğu özel otomobiliydi. Yılmaz Güney'in 1960-70 yıllarında çekilen çoğu sinema filmlerinde bu Buick arabasını görebilirsiniz. Yılmaz Güney çok usta bir yönetmen. aktör ve entelektüel bir insandı ve o dönemdeki Türkiye yönetimi onun kıymetini bilemedi. Çok hızlı yaşadı ve maalesef hızlı yani erken öldü (1984'te Fransa'da öldü) Allah onun günahlarını bağışlasın ve ona rahmet etsin.

I had a 64 with a 465 wildcat air condition power everything I bought it off the original owner he said there was a dual four barrel intake in the trunk when it came off of the assembly line he he said I could have it but II never did see it
Fantastic BEAUTIFUL 64, Funny, they ordered the deluxe interior and ZERO other options! No A/C or anything else. I’ve owned two 65’s but prefer the 64’’s. No troublesome headlight doors and 340 HP 425 CID compared to the 401 / 325 HP engines that were standard in 1965. 65’s had a better transmission. The Turbo 400. Wonderful cars!
1963 was the last year for dynaflow. 1964 Riviera has Turbo 400. it does differ in some respects from the Turbo 400 that was offered from 1965 forward. 1965 1966 and 1967 Turbo 400 have variable-pitch stator blades.the 1964 Turbo 400 has fixed position stator blades. So you do not get that extra surge of power when you depress the accelerator. The 1964 Turbo 400 has a single range Drive. there is no separate selection 4 Super Range.still it has all 3 gears Low super and drive.it has the same passing gear when you depress the accelerator.you just can't hold it in super position as you can with the 1965 and later Turbo 400.
Hi Joseph, Happy to read you enjoy this ride :-) Regarding the clock in the car, I think what happens is the clock breaks, you fix it, then it breaks again, and you get tired of fixing them, Lou
Mark G - washer fluid res is driver’s side firewall next to the brake booster. Edit: Nope... it is listed as washer fluid reservoir in OPG’s parts catalog. So now I’m confused... what is the tank above the brake booster? Did they have headlight washers too? Or is the bottle just for extra washer fluid...?
Car and Driver 1965 Buick Riviera : 0- 60 7.2 quarter mile 15.5 , Car Life 1964 Olds 442 0- 60 7.4 quarter mile 15.6 ,Car Life 1965 Olds 442 0- 60 7.8 quarter mile 15.5, 1966 Ford Fairlane GTA 0- 60 8.6 quarter mile 15.4, 1970 Chevy Chevelle SS 396 0- 60 8.1 quarter mile 15.5. Not all muscle cars were optioned for all out racing some came with lower horse power for example Chevy 396 could have 325 hp, 350 hp or 375 hp and gear ratios from low 3 to low 5. Car Life tested two Road Runners one with 3.23 gears that ran 0-60 7.3 quarter 15.3 the other with 3.91 gears ran 0- 60 6.6 quarter 14.7
Way out classes the newer Buicks.the newer ones are more like a cheap Asian car from the 60s&70s, will get you there, but That's about it.the newer ones wouldn't inspire me to want to detail it.or even have any pride in it.just something to scrap when it's worn out.not rebuild.

This Riviera drips class and cool some fifty plus years. There's a Riviera commercial on RUclips that showcases this gem
Glad you enjoy this classy one :-) Thanks for the tip on the commercial.

Hi Craig, Happy to read you've had two Rivieras :-) Twice as nice! Thank you for viewing and sharing your 1st hand knowledge, Lou
Gorgeous car... always loved Rivvies.
Happy to read this is one you love :-)
Next, to the 1965 hidden clamshell headlamps, the 1964 is a very beautiful car. I don't think WHITE does it justice out of all the amazing colors Buick offered on this car. Bill Mitchell's design of the 1963-1965 Riveria, in my opinion, holds the candle to all other designs. This shape and body is so gorgeous and unique that you can't drive this car anywhere without people stopping and staring. Good job Lou!
Kenneth White - Agree! The ‘65 GS was true automotive art. The clamshell headlight doors were beautifully done.
I like the clamshell headlights on the '65 but I hated the rear bumper so I've always preferred the '63 and '64.
Hi Kenneth White, Glad you enjoy this good looking one :-) I like this one too. Thank you for the kind words on the video, Lou
Man i wish my 64 looked that good.
Nice car i was there at the opgi store and the gentle men who took my order showed me thatriviera beutyfull

Looks to me. That adjuster on the side of the console is for a power drivers seat. I wonder if there is one on the other side for the other seat.

1963 was the last year for dynaflow. 1964 Riviera has Turbo 400. it does differ in some respects from the Turbo 400 that was offered from 1965 forward. 1965 1966 and 1967 Turbo 400 have variable-pitch stator blades.the 1964 Turbo 400 has fixed position stator blades.

No air conditioning! I mean why would you buy a Riv without maxing it out?
I guess this one was not maxed out on options.
That remote mirror control on the driver door is oriented incorrectly. How do I know? I had a 1965 Riv.
Hi BobEckert56, Happy to read you had a 65 Riviera too, Lou
Way out classes the newer Buicks.the newer ones are more like a cheap Asian car from the 60s&70s, will get you there, but That's about it.the newer ones wouldn't inspire me to want to detail it.or even have any pride in it.just something to scrap when it's worn out.not rebuild.
Hi just enough, Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this car :-) Lou
