Platerpants Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 As Title says I am in search of a 63 Riviera Rear Bumper and Tail Lights Both Stock Please. I don't have the model in hand yet but I am starting the search for the parts I know it needs. Some parts I know I can get from the 65 kit but the tail lights and bumper are not on that list. Thanks!

Platerpants Posted February 26, 2021 Author Share Posted February 26, 2021 No replies yet but here is what my model looks like (still don't physically have it yet) as you can see the rear bumper looks horrible and it is missing the lenses and buckets for the tail lights. I am watching a pair on ebay now. But we all know there is probably going to be that 1 guy who has a deeper wallet than me and needs these parts for his stash. Any help locating these parts if ebay doesn't work is still appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platerpants Posted March 4, 2021 Author Share Posted March 4, 2021 Was Able to Score the Buckets and Bumper. Unfortunately someone else needed the lenses more than me so I am still in search of the tail light lenses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platerpants Posted March 13, 2021 Author Share Posted March 13, 2021 Update on the Riv Still Need Tail Light Lenses. Got a message about someone having the parts but when I replied I haven't heard back its been several days now. Oh well the search continues.

StevenGuthmiller Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 I wouldn't waste much time looking for original lenses Jake. There is nothing special about them. No particularly unique engraving or detail on them of any kind. It would be very easy to find a piece of flat clear red lens from another kit and cut your own. If you can't find anything in red, you could always use clear and hit the backside with some clear red paint. There's really no reason to give some goof $20.00 for a set of the originals when you can make a set in a few minutes for nothing.

1930fordpickup Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Even a piece of plastic red tail light from a real car can be made to fit. Do you know anyone at a local body shop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
