Description

*** If you have a feed back score of 3 or lower please contact me before bidding or your bid will be cancelled. 1975 Riviera. This van has had 2 owners. I decided to do a (preservation) restoration to this bus as the body and paint were in such good original condition. I wanted to preserve the originality of the bus. This van has gotten very little use over the last several years. This bus has been in the same family a majority of its life. Mostly Original paint. arrow strait body. no bondo or filler any were. The motor was rebuilt at some point. The van runs and drives excellent. Steering is tight. brakes are solid. All new upholstery and interior panels. This bus has just been completely gone over by my mechanic. any repairs needed were done. This is a very reliable bus excellent for long distance driving. Engine/Transmission- Rebuilt motor. new fuel lines. intake manifold boots. fuel line. fresh complete tune up. rebuilt progressive Webber (jetted perfectly). Transmission shifts great. The transmission was just serviced. Much more work has been done by the previous owner. The motor has plenty of power. the transmission shift great. Paint/Body- Mostly original paint. I had the paint professionally polished. The paint still has a deep shine and gloss. This van has not been in any accident. 99% rust free West Coast bus. Both front and rear bumpers and wheels have been professionally sand blasted and painted. There is no filler on this bus. Body is arrow strait with a few small dings. Interior- The front seats have been completely reupholstered using reproduction seat covers. The padding we used is much better than the factory. All new foam padding was used. not the cheap reproduction coconut fiber seat cushions. I also had the rear Z-bed and rear cushion reupholstered by a profession shop. The shop does amazing work. A custom heavy duty stitched and padded vinyl was used. I made new birch wood door panels. kick panels. and various other interior panels. These were cut from 1/4 inch material. New heavy duty carpet in camping area. This interior has the full bed which is nice and has no blind spots by eliminating the rear closet. there is a custom made wood storage cabinet in the back. also storage under the rear seat and custom made jump seat. The headliner is in excellent condition. This van has a weekender style interior lay out and is very open. Perfect interior lay out in my opinion. There is a full bed in the pop top area. This van will sleep 4 comfortably. Other- New correct load rated tires. nice CD Player with remote. factory front dash table. awning with poles. All the electrical is in good working order. the gas gauge does flicker at times. All dash and interior lights work. This van has a factory gas heater which is not currently working but all there. Original Jack. This is a very nice solid. dry West Coast van that has been cared for by its previous owners. This is a no stories bus. having original paint gives you a good idea of its true condition. Mechanically the bus is excellent. This is a bus you can use as a daily driver or for your long distance camping adventures. This bus is at a fraction of the cost of as fully restored van making it a great value and investment.
