I am a huge George Lynch fan! His guitar playing in Dokken was mind blowing. He never skipped a beat when he started Lynch Mob. Icon rockstar with an amazing set of wheels.
George Lynch gave me goosebumps in his soloing. You never knew where it was going in the exciting lead breaks he did. I miss that era of Metal and I wish it would come back..
This Rivi is very specific to one guy, speaks to the style he is after. It’s not everybody’s cup of tea, though.. However, I do like that two tone paint job and python skin that runs down the sides of this Rivi..defines the body lines so well.
I had never seen a 65 Riviera quite like this before this aired. From every angle the car is beautiful. It's menacing looking but in a sort of uncontrived way. It's as though designer just drew up a sketch that was very pleasing to the eye without trying too hard to get any sort of menacing appeal. I love the front end grill and the length proportionally is just spot on so that it sort of drifts into view like a dark cloud. If you own one of these and you add just a little too much bling it will spoil easily. It has to be minimalist but classy and perfect and they got it right here. If I ever came into some money I would be hunting one down and preferably a car that need a lot of work doing. George is in my top 5 guitar players and I have learned many of his songs and guitar parts. He is so unique in his approach, not only the guitar but his songs or compositions often using the flat 5th note, Diminished scales, Phrygian modes and altered scales ect. Some of these notes were actually banned, omitted and looked down on in religious circles and cultures (no Kidding) as they do have a dark and mysterious sound earning George the nickname ''MR SCARY!'' George was also probably the first to use a very wide vibrato with just his left hand which is really difficult to get sounding right. George Lynch definitely deserved this build and like I said; if I ever won the lotto or something I would love to have my car look very much the same. Beautiful indeed.
This Buick crazy awesome with an serious attitude problem. The beast looks mean and cool at the same time. GM built some great muscle cars in the past.
With a near budget of $200,000 budget, I asked Counting Cars about doing a restoration project. They turned me down by saying that they were too busy. Not long later, I'm glad that they declined. One client wanted his restoration done his way but Danny, and crew, added some of their ideas anyway. I would be furious had they done that to my restoration project. Luckily, I found some people that are doing my restoration project exactly how I want it.

I partied with the whole band Dokken on Sanibel island back in the late 80's ! They stole my girlfriend ..........and she was only 17 ! I'm looking at you George ! It's all good though I ended up with her younger prettier sister the same night ! I'm serious but I play guitar and George is one of my all time favorite guitar players from that genre ! Him,Eddie and Randy Rhoads where it for me as far as influences go ! Oh yeah and Jimi Hendrix too !
I see alot of people saying old paint job was better and I'm borderline on this one as well. I think new paint job looks sick but I get it the matte black on that body is sick too
I have been on the hunt for this car to buy and $ no object when it comes to what I'd do to customize that absolute piece of 🇺🇸 America muscle cars rite there I was hooked when my older brother in the 70s had one that he drove in stock car durbies it makes me sick to think of the Georgous cars that were trashed years ago during crash up durbies just makes me sick and now guys search the Globe for these works of art but the 65 Riviera is what I'd consider my Sunday drive car all customized out and go antique hunting with the Queen and then a nice dinner ...my ideal Sundays during retirement 😉🇺🇸
I was relaxing surfing the free channels. George Lynch-top 100? Lol, #2 in my book. What is this car, a 65? All steel, clean lines and the glass has not warped. An original car? Wreck into this steel car, won't even dent it, a tank. A 401 engine, never heard of it, a chevy 400 yes, lol. Rebuild the engine, trans, rear end and tweek it a bit? Start it up. If the drive train is all original and the body, ooohhh mann. That is George Lynch.
Kinda looks like he's just saying he likes it but there are some pieces when told about that he asks "wth" like if it's a joke but then given the name and reason of, like the horn. He thought the horn was a joke. The alligator head is 100% the first thing getting tossed out.
I hate to tell them, but that alligator head will start stinking in about 6 months. I had one and put it in a small dog house by my pool period within six months the preservation failed and it smelled!
I had one exactly like that 65 Riviera 2 -4 barrels factory that's not the original engine in that car the original was two four barrels pop up Pistons I know I blew a piston out of mine

This car is my favourite finished custom that the guys did . Ryan's paint job is as BOSS as the car
I completely respect George lynch. I only saw him with the Linch Mob but he is awesome, coming from a guitar player...very cool to c

Old paint was so good!!
I like the original better in some ways except for the interior
I like the original paint job
Matt black was far better
Me too
They ruined this one.... Original was better

nah bro the snakestripe under the black is way mean
George wanted the car to look different. His car. His money. His taste. They work to satisfy one customer. He's happy.
Rockstar car!! George Lynch..rules
65 Riviera..Nice Ride👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Great car for a great guitar player.

Aww man this a some bad boys 😀

I liked it way more when he drove it in.
Top📈
I like this buti
Is the horn legal though?
Hey look it's your club right next to my fav restaurant Hash House!! LOL I live about 5 mins away xD
Am I playing GTA IV?🤤
I thought that same bc I saw the word rockstar
where's that french dude...he's Hungarian 😭😭😂😂😂
If He's such an icon why hasn't anybody ever heard of him
He was more famous in Dokken . But rock n roll legend. Eh no . More like Leg End
Because some people live under rocks
Oh yeah, George Lynch.
Never heard of him...
He's George Lynch, one of the best guitarists of all time.
Well you better start learning.
Kinda looks like he's just saying he likes it but there are some pieces when told about that he asks "wth" like if it's a joke but then given the name and reason of, like the horn. He thought the horn was a joke. The alligator head is 100% the first thing getting tossed out.
He just took off without paying for it
Slow & low baby
I found a picture I know you'll like ,it's coming your way.
I would have kept it the way it was.
My folks had one of those 66"
I hate to tell them, but that alligator head will start stinking in about 6 months. I had one and put it in a small dog house by my pool period within six months the preservation failed and it smelled!
Nevermind top 100, he's more like top 5.
Have to agree. He's one of the best that's ever been
@@derricka.mccormick6548 Absolutely. He's definitely my personal favorite guitarist of all time. He's probably more like in the top three.
@@ESPE2M1 most definitely a top 3 for sure. His play style is very unique and not easy to copy
@@derricka.mccormick6548 I agree 100%
When did it become a goal to be a lawbreaker ( as on gangster ) ? What's the attraction ? I don't get it.
love this car just looks mean
I loved the original paint.. 😐
Why does it look so much like a 67 Impala
Those came with dual carbs also
I like lynch mob then had some good music 🎶
"Where's that French dude at"
Nah. The original paint looked way better and the new interior sucks. That shift is a disaster waiting to happen.
Call me basic, but I liked it better before the restoration🤷🏻♂️
I do too, but the rebuild of the "original" drive train is needed.
Basic
I had one exactly like that 65 Riviera 2 -4 barrels factory that's not the original engine in that car the original was two four barrels pop up Pistons I know I blew a piston out of mine
rumers say he is still driving till now
rock'n'roll icon ? who is he ?
He's George Lynch, and one of the best guitarists of all time. Look it up
Toyota Corolla is dependable, reliable and affordable, with a price tag of under $20,000 for many models.
That glam metal scene didn’t last long for lynch
I wonder how long it’s been since George washed his hair ?
Супер!!!
Old was better
Hello♥️
Looked way better before you took it there! I understand the engine and transmission refresh but the rest looked like garbage. Wasted your $ bro
When people realize a customs shop isn’t a restoration shop you’ll learn to stop being so worried about the work they kick out
@@mGreg14 it still looks like garbage though
Look so much better before.
the car looks better before ...the strips looks tacky
I'm South African and putting that kudu horn as a gearshift is grade A horseshit
Isn't the channel supposed to be about history?
🤣
It was better before they ruined it…….and it was better before that when it was stock
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Noooooo
Hope he paid before he split. Went and had that alligator head taken out.
This one was better before
??? Rock n roll icon?? Never heard of him.
You must be young. He IS a legend.
@@davidgust4045 old enough to know that I’ve never heard of him.
Malcolm Young is a legend
Carlos Santana is a legend
Stevie Ray Vaughan is a legend
Pete Townsend
Chuck Berry
Jimi Hendrix
Keith Richards
Need I continue?
My opinion is - I don’t know the guy. So be it.
Dont like it? Stiff.
He shouldn't give any details if he doesn't know what he's talking about.
The '65 Riv was 39 lbs heavier than the '63. I'm pretty sure it was also a little longer, and maybe a little wider, too.
That's bad to the bone..erh..I mean horn
Reason why everybody should have a profitable investment running.... People need money
.. +.. 1..8..0..2..4..0..0..5..1..4..1..
Do well to mesg my trust expert..
Still with the sinister look
Dokken? George Lynch? Who???
Stop
The paint job ruined everything………actually everything they did ruined that car
Should have left it alone, didn't need any work.
Don’t know why I’m here
This car needs rally wheels no
Tacky....sinfully tacky
I mean....he's famous. Not sure I'd call him a legend. Nice car though.
Facts!
Idk who he is lol
You guys are ridiculous. If you know about rock and metal guitar work you know about George Lynch.
Beautiful car, I never cared for Dokken.
