Ok here we are again, the start of a new project. A 69 Riviera hardtop with a bit of street sleek.
What do you think :biggrin:

Cool!! Have you tried the '66 Riviera chassis under it? I've been meaning to but I can't find my '69. What color are you going with for the interior?

'It's time for muscle' , is what my wife told me last time she saw my fat belly :lol:
Btw, good job so far :bigthumb: The rims are a perfect match IMO.

I like it!! I am kind of fond of the big "boat" type american muscle. I used to date a chick in high school that drove a 67' Riv. Nice build, keep it up!

I think the wheel match the car pretty well, but you might want to give it a black wash, it might be alittle too bling.

Thanks for the comments all.
This thing is going to bling your head off, Chrome fenders front and rear!!
As for interior I'm not sure Standard street but with either retro bucket seats or full on race seats hmmmm not sure, think I am leaning towards retro buckets.
Colour for the interior.... open for suggestions

Hmm, like the idea of a cream interior. What about cream just washed with a very light brown to pick out details..........
looking for some cones for the rear parcel shelf aswell, just to big to leave blank.

I think a white interior would go good with the style of the car.

I would have to speak against the crome fenders, I think it'd break up the look too much. Looks great, just don't use the chrom on the fenders! Well, do what you want, but get it done so we can all see it!
