Wow Ben, you have your very own pick n' pull! Five Rivieras in one yard cyclops , I would consider myself lucky if I ever came across that. As far as your Dads collection goes, I think its pretty cool that he saved these cars from becoming scrapped, lots of good parts there for collectors to restore! So what is he gonna do with the one on the trailer?

too bad most of it is farmed. but i tried to get dad to build an indoor dirt track for cars with a demolition derby in the middle. but he wouldnt do it. It would give the dirt track rcers something to do in the winter but it would expensive as hell.

the green riviera is a 97 i believe

Well guys since this last post my dad has bought a white 1995 Riviera, A pearl white 1997 riviera, and a beige 1996 Riviera, a beige 1997 riviera, and a green 1996 rivera. My aunt owns the green 96 and my friend owns the beige 97. My dad will buy them back from them once they are done with them. So as of now three more have been added to the collection. I will post pictures sometime. He also owns his very first riviera 1997 beige and my brothers green 1997 riviera.

So all in all he owns 8 Rivieras then I have mine. Once my friend and aunt are done with his he will own 10 unless he buys more!

I think an "intervention" may be in order lol


Love rural areas, especially farms, as they always seem to have great "back 40" graveyards of interesting cars.

Had a 1969 Wildcat in college myself, in the early 90s. Sunday driver from an old lady, had about 60k miles. Great car.
