    According to the shop, 1800 man hours between the 3 main painters to make this happen. I have seen this car in person three times and it is impossible to see everything that is in the paint. The seats are just wild. Shine a light on the back seats and see Danny's picture come thru. Amazing. I forget how many pounds of metal flake that went into this but just crazy.

    I still remember the day my dad brought his home. I had never seen such a magnificent car before at age 13. He bought it used in 1975, but it was pristine. It may seem like just a unique 70s car today, but in it's day, it may have as well been a UFO to those who had never seen one before. The 455 HP was smogged down but the torque was there. It ran smooth at idle and full throttle, and had a lot of passing power. I pegged the speedo one night, and it stuck beyond the bezel for a second. I hundred thoughts we t through my head on how I was going to explain that. Fortunately, it released after a few seconds.
    The front bumper has cylinders to compress to absorb blows without damage. They were necessary because it was difficult to gauge where the front bumper was because of the long hood. And it was common practice for people to tap bumpers against the cars on either end when parallel parking. The rear stinger bumper could damage most other cars if they bumped it.
    My dad kept his until he died in 2000. My jerk brother sold it to his friend for $100 before I realized it.
    I sure miss the smooth ride of that car and other large cars of that era.

    Back in the summer of 1972 I was robbed here in Las Vegas by some bandits that had just stolen a buck Riveria from a dealership here in town. It was a Saturday night just after 10pm on Stewart & 3rd st gas station. We had been pumping gas none stop for the cars dragging Fremont st.. I was asked to look under the hood & when I looked back up I had two guns aimed at my head. Just as the one Robber was running out of the office with a bag of cash & a full case of Cools there were the cops just driving by. They were all over these guy's & only one of the four got away. So every time I see a, Buick Riviera it reminds me of those 4 Bandidos & visions of a 1911 & nickel plated 357 revolver aimed at my head. Great looking Car Danny & better looking than the one that robbed me in Las Vegas. Who knows it could have been the same car.
