speedy5963 Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 I just finished this 65 Rivi the other night. The emblems have been removed, the interior is cream with black flocking for carpet. The color is HOK True Blue Pearl. The wire wheels are from the kit with white walls from the Monogram's 59 Impala. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carrucha Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Cool custom Rivi. Good job on the paint. Nice wheel/tire combo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedy5963 Posted March 2, 2011 Author Share Posted March 2, 2011 Thank you for all the comments, these are fun kits too build and each time I get some different ideas, I think the next one I'll remove the mold line from the bumpers, fit everything really well and have it re-chromed.

Nitro Neil Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Love the paint, always liked early Rivieras ever since my dad bought a 64. It was a lemon, but it looked cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W-409 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Very nice Riviera, one of the best ones, I've seen. Paintjob looks very good to me, shiny and no orange peel at all. Nice job with the wheels are just perfect, so real looking. And that grille is great too. I like this one very much, but maybe foiling door handles would be a good idea?

seeker589 Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 (edited) NOTHING looks better than a sleek Riviera mild custom. To me it was the high water mark of GM styling. Almost every thing else is not as pretty. Come to think of it - almost every year Riviera is beautiful - even the 80s models. Very nice build! The color is a knock-out!
