I absolutely love the book but don’t remember a Riviera in the story...I’ll have to read it again, maybe a bit slower this time.

Here’s the Skinny on how my dad finally found out about me crashing his Riviera.

When he got the first copy of the book and started reading it, he called me a few days after he started reading. He was laughing his ass off...and the book is how he found out the truth about his prized Black 63 Riviera with Silver (yes Silver) Leather interior and every option available by GM via Buick. Yep...he found out nearly 40 years later.

Better hurry, Jim. Rain's coming in early afternoon. It's beautiful out right now though.

Good luck! This is so cool.
