Background Story of this 1971 Buick Riviera

Overview of 1971 Buick Riviera For Sale by Owner

In the Sixties, everyone wanted to get in on the Personal Luxury Car mania. Buick’s contender was aptly named the Riviera, which is Italian for coastline. The first-generation Riviera was introduced to the public in 1963, and the model would continue until 1999, spanning eight generations. Today’s 1971 Buick Riviera comes from the third generation, and has got some modern upgrades under its belt. The current owner of this San Diego-based car also reports that all receipts and invoices are available with the sale.

Exterior and Interior

Sporting a maroon paint coat, this 1971 Buick Riviera looks fantastic. No doubt you’ll have noticed the car’s rear window design, with its wrap-around styling that’s reminiscent of the second-generation Chevy Corvette. Long, low and broad, this personal luxury car comes with a contrasting white roof, as two-tone themes were quite popular at the time. It’s definitely an automobile that will attract some attention at a car show, or even while you park it at the local mall or hypermarket. The interior of this 1971 Buick Riviera has reportedly been redone, with cream colored vinyl upholstered seating for four adults to travel in comfort. As you’d expect from a Seventies luxury car, there’s some wood trim, and the seats are of the sink-in variety. The car also features a custom audio system, controlled via a Kenwood head unit with CD player, AUX and USB inputs. Beneath this lies a control panel for the car’s climate control system. We’re not sure if the air conditioning works, so that remains to be checked. We’re also told that there’s no temperature gauge, but that’s easily rectified. You’ll also get plenty of trunk space, as a personal luxury car needs to carry a great deal of luggage to satisfy its occupants needs across longer trips.

Engine

Powering this 1971 Buick Riviera is a modern LS V8 that displaces 5.3 liters and powers the rear axle through a 4-speed automatic gearbox. The engine uses fuel injection for reliable cold starts and better fuel efficiency. We’re also told that the car has its stock suspension system, and a Magnaflow exhaust for a nicer V8 soundtrack.

1965 Buick Riviera

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$53,499
SOLD

By 1965, the Buick Riviera had firmly established itself as one of the most striking American personal luxury coupes of its time. Combining Bill Mitchell’s sharp styling with Buick’s refined powertrains, the Riviera delivered both presence and performance in equal measure. This example, a 1965 model, carries the legendary 401 cubic-inch “Nailhead” V8 paired to a smooth-shifting ST-400 3-speed automatic transmission. Showing 20,446 miles on the odometer, it has been repainted in an eye-catching orange finish and fitted with aftermarket wheels, setting it apart while still honoring the car’s bold original character.

1986 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$46,488

The Buick Regal is one of those nameplates from the Seventies that you can still buy today, albeit not in North America, but China! Introduced in 1973, just as the Malaise Era was taking hold, the Regal has always been the premium midsize offering from this storied American automaker. Regals have been made in coupe, sedan and station wagon forms, and come with some hot variants too. North American Regal sales ceased in 2020, as Buick wanted to refocus its attention towards solely selling SUVS in North America. Today, we have a second-generation 1986 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo for sale from Downey, California. This was considered quite a hot car in its time, due to its punchy 3.8-liter turbo V6 and performance-tuned suspension. This 44,107-mile car also comes with an upgraded intercooler set-up for a bit more bite.

1957 Chevrolet Corvette

PENDING SALE
$114,999

In 1953, Chevrolet introduced a car that would shake up the American sports car market. Yes, the Corvette was born that year. With breathtaking styling by Harley Earl, this iconic sports car initially came with a six-cylinder engine that was definitely unsuitable for such an amazing piece of automotive art and mechanical excellence. So, Chevy rectified the mistake by 1955 with the introduction of the Small-Block V8. Initially displacing 265ci, it grew to a 327ci unit by 1962. That’s what we have in this 1957 Chevrolet Corvette, with its 327ci V8 that packs dual quad carburetors and a reported output of 400 horseower. This Washington-based car also comes with its original interior, as well as original Corvette wheels. If you want a special classic Corvette that’s definitely going to be valuable for years to come, talk to us right now.
