While we are on the subject of Rivieras, one of Buick's and GM's best looking designs, I thought I'd toss my version in, as well.

Built entirely out of the box, even the wheels!! Squirted with Testors Burgandy purple.
Thanks for checking this Riviera out!!!

That is a lovely build, the color is really outstanding, is that BMF trim on the door openings? great job on the interior as well,
testors paints arn't readily avalable over here and theres some prop with shipping paints and flamable materials,
humbrol and tamiya are our main source although i have used some water base'd stuff from hobbycraft, they do some nice colors and it does go on ok as long as ya use a flat base, (nice and easy to wash the gun out too)

anyway, cracking job on that riv

Whens "Elvis" makeing an apperance? i still have those two ghostbusters caddys and the bits you kindly sent, everytime my grandson sees em he asks when i'm gonna make them, bless him

Thanks, popeye! I actually built this one during a time before I started using BMF. The trim is hand-painted silver.
I think "Elvis" was among the very first builds I posted here! hahaha Get crackin' on your Caddy's, dude!! Can't wait to see 'em!

Might help it!
