The year is 1970 The world's first jumbo-jet, the Boeing 747, has its first commercial flight on January 22nd of 1970. And gasoline was only .36 cents a gallon. While this one family owned Buick Riviera rolled off the assembly line. Now she only has 31,446 original and well documented miles. Never been restored, but did have a new A/C compressor, heater core, and radiator rebuilt this year. The big 455 gets you moving, but still rides down the road like a cloud. As the way, it should be in any classic Buick.

The Buick Riviera is a personal luxury car produced by Buick from 1963 to 1999. GM's first entry into that prestige niche, the Riviera was highly praised by automotive journalists upon its high-profile debut. While early models stayed close to the original form, subsequent generations varied substantially over the Riviera's thirty-year lifespan. In all, 1,127,261 were produced. The 1970 Riviera was restyled. Exposed quad headlamps were nearly flush-mounted, while the new front bumper wrapped around and over the new vertical bar grille, set between the headlamp pods. A newly optional side trim feature accented the large coupe's flowing lines. Skirted rear wheels became standard, with exposed wheels an option. At the rear, a new rear bumper/taillight motif was seen. The engine was upgraded to 455 CID, the largest engine Buick offered to date, rated at 370 HP, and over 500 lb·ft of torque. Despite the fact that 1970 sales dropped to 37,366, the second-generation Riviera proved more successful than the first, with 227,669 units sold over five seasons.
