Description

1956 Buick Century Riviera
Model 66R
“Simply Stunning,” is the only way to describe this beautifully sculptured piece of rolling art. This Century Riviera not only has clean and classic lines but the blue and white exterior commands immediate attention given the gloss and depth of its color.
The quality and depth of attention to detail is over the top including the mechanical drive train. Power is supplied through the 322 cid Fireball V8 as found in the Roadmasters producing 255 HP which was tops in class. The V8 provided 0-60 mph times in less than 10 seconds with a top speed of 110 mph.
The interior is finished in light blue cloth which is flawless, again, attention to detail in every area of originality and quality. The engine bay is spotless with special attention made to originality. The chrome appears new with wire spokes setting off the glowing appearance.
If you like to avoid attention, uncomfortable with compliments, this car is definitely not for you!
If pride of ownership of a rare and spectacular classic car from the American era when stylists were free to express themselves in molding metal into artwork, this car IS for you!
Estimate: $40,000 - 45,000
