UPDATE:
I got the car out of storage, cleaned out the gas tank, put a new Battery in it and rebuilt the carb, and it runs REALLY well.
Sorry I have not posted any pictures yet, but I do know that there are quite a few chips, however almost no body work to speak of.
I have heard that someone who specializes in laquer paint can touch them up and sand them in, however there are quite a few and I'm not sure repainting it isn't the easiest way to go, unless it would hurt the value considerably.
There is though NO rust that I have been able to find anywhere.
I did find and buy a 3.23 posi for it as soon as I nailed it from a stop light. After about 5 car lengths of smoke off the right tire, I figured this would be a prudent move to make.
FYI: Original posi units with gears for 65 Riviera's are scarce and expensive when you can find one.
Anyway, I look forward to your comments and if I can arrange to get some pictures, I'll post them asap.
I'm still looking for the title, so I can't legally drive it yet.
Thanks,
Ty
