　　STYLING CUESFrom introduction for 1963, Buick's personal-luxury

　　Riviera served proudly as one of the most stylish postwar

　　automobiles ever produced. Redesigned for 1971, the Riviera took

　　the concept to new heights with a stunning new body design

　　featuring a dramatic "boattail" rear treatment a styling flourish

　　favored by GM styling chief Bill Mitchell and his deep appreciation

　　of prewar automotive icons from Bugatti, Adler, and other European

　　greats. While produced with its distinctive rear treatment

　　essentially intact through 1973, The first cars for 1971 are the

　　most sought-after by today's collectors for their purity of design

　　with smaller chrome bumpers placed close to the body and clean

　　bodysides without moldings. The 1971 Riviera also featured the

　　Buick's last use of the Full-Flo ventilation system including

　　handsome rear-deck air louvers. While the Riviera was an already

　　strong performer with Buick's proprietary 455 cubic-inch V-8 engine

　　rated at 315 horsepower, the Riviera Gran Sport delivered a power

　　boost to 330 factory-rated horsepower. Other Gran Sport-exclusive

　　features included a chrome air cleaner, a specially calibrated

　　Turbo-Hydramatic 400 automatic transmission, Heavy Duty suspension,

　　a 3.42 limited slip differential, H78 x 15 bias-ply tires, and

　　special 'Riviera GS' monograms to the front fenders and instrument

　　panel. This former California car was built during the first week

　　of January, 1971 and features a Trim Tag-correct Code 65 Copper

　　Mist paint finish a color choice exclusive to the top-of-the-line

　　Rivera, accented by Code 684 optional Sandalwood vinyl upholstery.

　　Ample power and performance is delivered by Buick's proprietary 455

　　CI V-8 engine, rated at 330 horsepower. Features and options

　　include factory air conditioning, a nearly invisible radio antenna

　　contained inside the windshield, and Buick's handsome chrome Road

　　Wheels mounting new tires. A full service was performed recently

　　and the Riviera's weatherstripping is new. Mileage is believe to be

　　original and documents include the owner's and radio manuals, plus

　　the dealer-issued Protect-O-Plate warranty card confirming the

　　original sale of this Riviera GS to its first owner resident in

　　Stockton, California. See this top-specification, collector-grade
