Charley,

Not sure if this has been asked or not...why did you choose to do a Riv?

I love 65 and 66 Riv's. With all the car tours we do the bigger trunk will be great.

Oh come on..... tell the real story behind the Rivi..... LOL

And yes -- so glad on the larger trunk -- I'm going to buy some larger, more comfortable chairs now that you've got space for them.

Apparently I told Greg the story about wrecking my buddies Dad's new boat tail Riv one night while his parent were on vacation in Europe. Luckily my brother worked at a Chevy dealership an he loaned me the money to get it repaired before they got back. Had to hang a new 1/4 panel on it.

Chairs come in handy.

Now that’s a story!

Most of us just wreck our own parents’ cars...lol

First time I looked at this thread, probably because Riviera was in the title. LOL This thing is awesome, I am so digging somebody thinking outside the box. Quality of work under an original car, priceless. Where everyone seems to have gone racing, nice to see a cool cruiser/street brawler being built again. Kudos Charley
