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.
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.
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.

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.

The 1937 Buick Special Series 40 Convertible represents a distinctive moment in prewar American automotive design, blending elegant Art Deco styling with the smooth, streamlined proportions that defined Buick’s entry-level luxury models of the era. While Buick was known for refinement and engineering sophistication in the 1930s, this example advances that legacy by integrating modern performance and comfort into a classic platform. Finished in Silver and fitted with a Carson-style removable top, this restomod preserves the graceful lines of the original convertible while transforming it into a high-performance cruiser that bridges prewar aesthetics and contemporary hot rod culture.
Buick’s GS or Gran Sport tag was initially applied to the automaker’s Skylark model in the Sixties, before extending to cover hot variants of the Riviera, Wildcat and Century. Choosing a GS Buick meant that you were availing yourself to some pretty impressive and giant-killing performance. Here, we’ve got a 1966 Buick Skylark GS for sale from what better place than Indianapolis! With 2,600 miles since some comprehensive work, this beast comes with a 494ci V8, a T-56 6-speed manual box, a new black interior and many more things to make this Skylark soar like an eagle.
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.
This 1959 Chevrolet Corvette has been comprehensively reimagined as a high-quality restomod that blends iconic C1 styling with modern performance, drivability, and comfort. Built around a custom tube chassis and powered by a 6.2L naturally aspirated LT1 V8, this example moves well beyond a cosmetic restoration, offering contemporary reliability while preserving the character and proportions that define late-1950s Corvette design. The integration of modern suspension, braking, and interior systems positions this car as a true driver-focused classic rather than a period-correct showpiece.
First generation Ford Mustangs are some of the most popular first-time classic cars around. Think we’re mistaken? Well, based on the amount of them that we’ve shifted, we beg to differ. With well over 2.5 million first-gen ‘Stangs created, there’s definitely no shortage of them around. You’ve got six or eight-cylinder power, three alluring body styles to pick from, and manual or automatic transmissions. So, choosing a first-generation Mustang is really down to your specific tastes and desires. Today’s example is a 1970 Ford Mustang Convertible from Portland, Oregon. It’s got a 302ci V8 under the hood, paired with a 3-speed SelectShift automatic gearbox, and also rocks an aftermarket radio. So do let us know if you’d like to own this sub-36,000 mile pony.
This 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible represents one of the most iconic and driver-focused configurations of the second-generation C2 platform. Powered by a high-output 327ci naturally aspirated V8 rated at 350 horsepower and paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, this Corvette emphasizes mechanical engagement, high-revving performance, and classic American sports car character. As a St. Louis–built example finished in factory Rally Red, the car showcases a highly desirable combination of performance, correct specification, and period-correct presentation, making it an excellent representation of mid-1960s Corvette engineering.
