Ron Daugherty is quick to point out that the rare one-of-a-kind Buick Riviera boat-tail only appeared in 1971 and 1972. The premium-level Buick achieved mixed reviews within GM and with customers in general, but Ron says owners of these unique cars should feel lucky as the boat-tail Riv almost didn’t make it beyond the prototype stage. Fortunately, the Riviera was scheduled for production for two years, after which the distinctive shape dissolved into history. Riviera expert Ron says most boat tails found homes in the northeast between New York and Chicago, and weren’t produced long enough to spread throughout the United States. We’re not sure about that one, since we’ve certainly seen them all over, but there could be some truth to the claim.
Ron’s painstakingly accurate ’71 Riviera restoration was mostly undertaken between 1997 and 2002, but continues today. The personal luxury coupe is largely stock, with its cornucopia of factory amenities intact and working with Swiss watch precision. (Sorry smokers, the original hidden ashtray has been removed!) Don’t think, however, that Ron is satisfied to ride glassy-eyed in the slow lane. This Champagne Pearl Beige sled packs an intercooled P-1SC ProCharger that feeds a nearly stock Buick 455ci for around 550 hp. The car has also been lowered 2.5 inches (on QA1 adjustable shocks) for a sleeker look.
