On "My Car Story" we're in the West Suburbs of Chicago IL on 11-10-21.
We're looking at a 1967 Buick Riviera in Black Paint. The car comes with the 430 CI V8 “Wildcat Power” engine, and an automatic transmission.
The car's Owner is Jaime Reyes. Jaime’s had this car since 2001. He shared he purchased his first Buick Riviera when he was 15 years old from a Teacher at school and has had every Riviera from 1965-1985 throughout his car purchasing career.
ENJOY! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
The 60s Riveras is one of the best looking designs GM has ever had. Love white letter tires on older cars too. Car looks excellent in all black too !
Well done Reyes family.
Hi troynov1965, High praise for this GM design :-) Lou
Yes, nice tires but I'm NOT crazy about those wheels! I liked the WIRE wheels on most classic cars!
@@mr.blackhawk142 Yeah I would prefer the Buick Rally wheels myself instead of hubcaps.
Lou, this Buick is just terrific. The 60's Riv's designed by Bill Mitchell and Ned Nickles may just be the most handsome of all of the modern American automotive designs. Design, luxury and performance were superb in all aspects. Thank you for this feature and all of the work you do. Your guests are always so proud to share their pride & joys... I for one ALWAYS learn something. 👌
Enthusiasm sells!
Hi Audie, High praise for this Buick :-) My pleasure sharing with you. You're welcome. Happy to read you always learn something too, Lou
Yup! Buicks were GM's best efforts and the Rivieras were the BEST of the Buick line! The Olds Toronados were close to it for looks.
the 66 and 67 are two of the most beautiful designs ever developed. Gorgeous!!
High praise for the design of this car :-)
Great car!!! The styling of this Riviera is stunning like a big grand touring body with that fastback design feature, makes this car look very sleek, and yes, very sinister in black!!! What a beauty and I love that the headlights look as if they were an afterthought. It's like the designers got the car finished and said, "uh oh, we forgot the headlights, but don't want to ruin the front appearance so, okay here ya go"!!! Lol. My Mother had a 1966 Wildcat convertible, red with red interior when I was a kid and I remember setting that speedometer alarm thing, I didn't know what it was. Driving down the highway, when it went off, it startled my Dad and I kinda got in trouble!!! Lol. Thanks for sharing that Beautiful Buick!!!
Hi Hobiemarty, High praise :-) Happy to read you Mother had a cool car! My pleasure sharing this one with you. You're welcome, Lou
Your story of setting the speed secretly and letting your dad discover it while going down the highway gave me a good chuckle for the day! Great memories!😉
my uncle had one of these back in the day/..loved them ever since ...perfect from every angle
Hi Theo, Happy to read this car brings back memories of your Uncles car :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Just beautiful! What an experience it used to be when driving a car. Thanks for documenting all of this history Lou!

You’re right Lou, it is a great car ! I love it and would own one in a heartbeat.. 👍🏼
Hi Richard, Happy to read you enjoy this "great car" :-) Lou
Thank you for bringing us another beautiful car! Always loved the Buicks from the mid to late 60's
Hi The Bearded Guy Jeff Lawless, Happy to read you "Always loved the Buicks from the mid to late 60's" :-) You're welcome, Lou
That's gorgeous! 67 was a great year for GM. Love the car and the color.
High praise :-)
Big Lou that car is a piece of work great content I really like this one big Lou as always keep up the great work big guy 👍👍👍
Big Sinbad, Happy to read you enjoy this content. Thank you for the encouragement, Lou
@@loucostabile Now that's a Really Big Show. Great Car!
Oh, man! Another amazing post, Lou! I’ve commented on the beautiful profiles of the Firebird and Comaro you have featured recently, but the lines on these Riv’s are just something else! I’m so happy I lived at a time when cars were statements about their owners! I can’t imagine being a teenager today, choosing between a grey CR-V or a silver RAV4. There are no longer any elegant vehicles being produced, simply utilitarian designs.
Your posts bring me back to the true pinnacle of auto craftsmanship!
Thanks again!
Hi Cherry Picker Guitars, Happy to read you enjoy the design of this car :-) Glad to read the posts I share "bring me back to the true pinnacle of auto craftsmanship!". You're welcome, Lou
Yup, most new cars look like plastic toys, NO CHROME at all on them!
I couldn't agree more. Though today's cars are miles ahead technologically, they have no soul or pastiche.
Hi, Lou! Let's see...every Riviera from '63 to '85...that's 23 different ones he's had (minimum) from six generations that Jaime has owned! I'd say that's a pretty powerful influence and a pretty lasting impression his teacher has had on him!
As for this "sinister" '67, you gotta admire every detail of the styling...the front end contour with the hidden headlamps, the dash with the rotating drum speedometer, the door "handles", the sleek profile, the sweeping rear with the slim taillights, etc. Clearly Bill Mitchell put all his heart and soul and every fiber of his being into this car's design. You also gotta admire how this car moves with authority thanks to that big Wildcat V-8!
Obviously, Jaime and J.J. really would rather have a Buick! Thanks to all of you for taking us through Lou's country in this fabulous flier from Flint! Happy New Year! Looking forward to more amazing car stories in 2022!
Hi iswc27, I think that Teacher's class gave him an "A" in driving stylish designed cars :-) Happy New Year! Lou
My mom had a 67 Riveras ,a grey one ,she gave rides with my neighbors to school,they said ,wow she drives fast ,and I said ,what do you mean,I was use to her driving! I always wished I could own it and painted it black,the most underrated car possible ever.

Beautiful Riv ! Such Great Lines ! Thanks Lou !
Hi Rudy, Happy to read you enjoy the lines of this car :-) You're welcome, Lou
i always thought the 67 rivvy was from the future.. i was 7 when my bro in law bought brand new one... silver w black vinyl top black interior... just stunning!.. i always remember the power windows n the rolling speedo!.. (power windows were scarce back then 😂)

Hi halhenryg, Thank you for viewing and sharing your thoughts. My pleasure having this visit with you. You're welcome, Lou
That is a beautiful Riv. My friend's older brother had a 67 Rivera. He bought it in 69 when he was working for Boeing. Many great memories. Always wanted one.

It's obvious GM Styling won every battle on this one.
Lou! Please make more videos, like the ones of pre-war era! The one you made while filming in the backseat, was brilliant! This generation doesn't know what real cars look and sound like. Thank you!
Hi Diamond Details, Thanks for sharing the cars you enjoy. As I find good ones, you'll see them. You're welcome, Lou
One of my all-time favorite cars. Sinister is the correct word. '67, my birth year, was a great year for GM in my opinion.
Hi Brian, Happy to read you enjoy this "Sinister" car :-) Glad to read you and this car have the same birth year, Lou
Back in 1965 at the age of 9...I looked across the city street from my Dad's restaurant and there I saw a 1964 Riviera parked [everyday]. I always looked inside cool cars and, the '64 Riv was a really cool looking automobile. I love those 60's large cars and the boulevard ride.
Hi Andrew, Happy to read this car brings back memories of the 64 Rivera :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
What a beautiful car! My parents had a 64 Wildcat. Fantastic car with the 340 hp nail head. But I think that the Riviera was arguably the best designed and performing American GT ever built. Especially with the 465 dual carb.
Hi Tom, Happy to read this car brings back memories of your Parents car :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
What a gorgeous Riviera that Jamie owns ! This is the best era of styling that Buick had... and the black with all the chrome ! This car is as clean in the engine bay as the rest of the car.! Thanks for sharing this car with us, Jamie - and thanks Lou.!
Hi Kevin, High praise :-) You're welcome, Lou

@@loucostabile Brother Lou, I am a dedicated subscriber. I always enjoy your videos. My first car was a 1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass. Red, white top, white interior. I bought it when I turned 16 in 1981 for $999.00 It was such a beautiful car. 350 with 4bbl carb and dual exhaust. I wish that I had it now. Lol Thank you for being so personable with your viewers. It means a lot to us, me included. God bless you and your family and keep giving us the classics!
Riviera’s were always very uniquely styled cars. Never appreciated them when I was younger but certainly do now. Beautiful car!
Hi Mark M, Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this car :-) Lou
Indeed. We got too caught up in the muscle cars of the era. These Rivieras seem to be finally getting the recognition they deserve.
Beautiful Buick Lou!
Bill Mitchell sure designed a lot of classics. Jamie and JJ are great caretakers for this piece of rolling artwork.
Thanks for bringing this one to us Lou!
Hi Jeff, Happy to read you enjoy this "piece of rolling artwork" :-) My pleasure sharing this car with you. You're welcome, Lou
Have always loved the mid 60's Rivieras ! This one does not disappoint........ I hope dad Jamie passes this one down to his son JJ!
One lucky kid for sure ! The black on black is just beautiful with the chrome mags and sport raised white lettering on the tires.......
begging to be raced! Thanks once again Lou for bringing yet another classic to your channel! 2021 going out with a bang!😉
Hi George S, Happy to read you "always loved the mid 60's Rivieras !" :-) I'm sure in due time J. J. will be behind the wheel of this one. You're welcome, Lou
I agree she looks sinister in Black too!
:-)
Lou these videos are starting to be one of the Highlights of my day!
Hi Michael, You're comment is a highlight for my day :-) Lou
That Buick is the knees of the 🐝! My granddaddy was all about the Buicks; he owned a few throughout his lifetime. I never knew of him to own a Riviera though, I think he missed out.
Hi Donald, Happy to read this one is "the knees of the 🐝!" :-) Glad to read your Granddaddy enjoyed his Buicks, Lou
Gotta love those big Ol Rivies, nice 👍! I had a 65 back in the 70’s , another real nice ride!
Hi Doug, Happy to read you "Gotta love those big Ol Rivies" :-) NICE! Lou
Congratulations to Reyes Family for this beautiful car. They enjoyed their Riviera and have it in excellent condition.
Thanks for your time and beautiful work plenty of sweet memories.
FELIZ AÑO NUEVO Y LO MEJOR PARA EL 2022 !
Hi Felipe, Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this car :-) Thank you for viewing & sharing, Lou
Jaime has one sweet Riviera Lou. I ❤ how the headlights fold down too. That wildcat purr sure brings a smile to one's face. 😀
Hi James, Happy to read you enjoy this "sweet" car :-) Lou
Goodday Lou,
Sinister is abit of a understatement, the more you introduce me to more & more cars the more I learn & the more I appreciate them.
After looking over this Riviera, that is 1 spunky personal cruiser.
I see one occasionally in the neighboring suburb in St-Kilda that I see & boy it looks big & tough in a bronzy colour.
Beautiful Back in Black Riviera.
Your number 1 Fan in Australia
Louis Kats from Melbourne Australia ☺ 👍 ❤
Goodday Louis, Happy to read you enjoy this "spunky personal cruiser" :-) Thank you for being my # 1 Fan in Australia, Lou
When I was a kid, I thought the Riv would have been front-wheel drive like its sister cars, the Toronado and Eldorado. I guess Buick thought rear-wheel drive would provide sportier performance and handling. Nice video, Lou. Thanks! Happy New Year, and the Best in 2022 to you and your family.
Hi Mike, I can understand why you'd think that. You're welcome. Happy New Year and the best to you and your Family in 2022 too, Lou
These Riviera were so sexy yet elegant. Also had a punch if you really stepped on it. This is a beautiful example. I love the sleek lines and the fact that it is stock. Great ride. Thanks for sharing Lou. Take care.
Hi Russell, Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this car :-) You're welcome, Lou
yep Sinister is right, what an awesome Buick -- going fast with class as only a Riviera can do
High praise for this car :-)
Lou, I just bought a '66 Riviera in fall with this same deluxe interior. I was drawn to it by the stunning lines but it also drives fantastic for a car 24 years older than me. By far my favorite car to drive with the windows down as there is no wind buffeting thanks to that flow through ventilation system you touched on. Todays' GM could really really learn a thing or two from these how to design a car with quality interior materials. Interesting to see the Speed Alert as that's where mine sets the cruise control. Can't wait for winter to end so I can take it out for a cruise now!
Hi Bob, Congratulations on your great new car! Happy cruising, Lou
That Rolling Speedo is 😎!
Thank you for sharing the detail you enjoy :-)
Isn’t it sad how low design is now on modern cars? Back then when you saw a Riviera you knew what it was! Very distinctive! Thx again Lou!
Hi Dave, There are quite a few cars / SUV's that seem to share a similar in design today. Glad to share the cars with the design you enjoy. You're welcome, Lou
That 430 sure sounds muscular!
Just the way we like it :-)
Well done Lou! Great Rivie, perfect video. Your work has expanded my world.
Hi Unkill Big Bad, Happy to read this is a "perfect video" :-) My pleasure sharing with you, Lou
This is one sweet ride. Gotta love the '66-'67 Rivs and Toronados!
Hi Gary, Happy to read you enjoy this "sweet" ride :-) Lou
Back in the 60"s the schoolbuss driver
(i dont know why)
Picked us up in his 67 riv.
There was room for 9 of us kids.. Was crazy..
Great memory.
Very roomy 2 door to say the least!
He he he!!
That is a great memory :-) Thank you for sharing.
When the salesman removed the tarp in the dealerships storage room i was in awe of this model in gray...It was in Feb 1969 and I was 19 yrs old looking for something beyond the all too common muscle cars all my friends were driving...17000 miles on it and I bought it for 3395.00$...the original owner later told me it was his fav and was sorry he traded it in after 18 months of driving it...
Hi Thomas, Happy to read this car brings back memories of February 1969 :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Nice, Lou I’m still waiting for you in TX and take the wheel of my RatyRiv , and my 15 yr old Daughter who keeps a close eye on it, and enjoys helping Dad with the fine tuning and Detail work, Black is Beautiful 👍🇺🇸

Hi David, High praise for this car :-) You're welcome, Lou
With 120k miles this Riviera is a great example of a car that has been loved. Aerodynamics and coefficient of drag be dammed with the front end design of that beautiful car. That trunk could hold at least three dead bodies and a great echo in there. I like that the dash includes the amps, temperature, & oil pressure gages. Thanks for showing us this car Lou.
Hi Randall, Thanks for sharing you enjoy this "great example" :-) Glad to read the details you notice on this car. You're welcome, Lou
One of the sharpest cars I've ever seen........Great video.
High praise :-)
Here we go again. It's uncanny. My father had a 67' Riviera, Silver. All I really remember about that one (I was about 4-5yrs old) is that we went on a trip from Alberta to the Okanagan in British Columbia and on the way home going through Roger's pass, my little brother shit his pants and we had to pull over for mom to clean up the mess. (same black interior as this) I distictly remember (and heard the story many times) of dad standing in front of the car hurling while all the big trucks we just passed drove by honking their horns. hahaha

Bill Mitchell was the designer for GM in 1967. He was designer from 1958 - 1977. He took over the duties from Harley Earl in 1958.
HI William, Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Lou

Beautiful😍 Thanks Lou!
Hi motorTranz, Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this car :-) You're welcome, Lou
I was expecting this car to be pretty basic because it wasn't a GS. Big surprise! The owner purchased a really loaded vehicle especially for a 67. The only thing missing was a console but in this case it really didn't matter. I love Rivieras and especially the 67 and 68's. Great find Lou. I was wondering about the poster in the trunk. You covered the jack instructions but failed to even mention the poster.
Hi Bill, Happy to read "I love Riviera's" :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
The 1960’s and 1970’s Rivieras have always had their own little niche in the car design element. It seems like Buick Riviera was the car for GM to express it design innovations, with the extreme ‘Boattail’ design later on. I don’t think I ever knew about the headlights movement. Most cars have only the covers move aside. Thanks Lou, Jamie,, and JJ for a great presentation!
Hi Rusty, Happy to read you learned something about the headlights on this car :-) My pleasure sharing with you. You're welcome, Lou
Is it just me or is a black Riviera from this vintage a somewhat rare sight? Nonetheless this car looks stunning finished in black. Power, style, innovation, the '67 Buick Riviera - and a California example no less - has it all. Thanks gentlemen, I really enjoyed this. Happy New Year!
Hi Bruce H. It's the first 1967 Riviera on the Channel, so I'd agree and share it's a rare sight for me. My pleasure sharing this one with you. You're welcome. Happy New Year! Lou
back seat passenger escape hatch lever included. buick style gas gauge to the right of the steering column. nothing "deleted," here. classy
Hi Scott, Thank you for viewing & sharing, Lou
Happy and healthy New Year to Lou and family and other members of this great community Lou and Son have created. So odd how the headlights drop down. Black 🖤 beauty.
Hi Terry M, Happy to read you like the looks of "Black 🖤 beauty" :-) Happy New Year! Lou
I was a Riviera man at a very tender age. Still am!
Nice :-)
Very nice. Formal looking and correct. And nicely kept. Luxury sports car is a good characterization.
Hi pkramerable, Happy to read you think this car is "Very nice" :-) Lou
Great video awesome car..one of the greatest looking cars of its time ..hands down
Hi Eric, High praise :-) Lou
Wow. I have always loved this year Riv. This is a true survivor. GM did not produce a lot of these. True sport luxury. Newer Rivs in the 80s were not as stylish and were fraught with many engine and electrical problems. These earlier models were much easier to work on and didn’t have onboard computers to deal with. This is a true sleek and desirable classic!!
Hi Larry C, Happy to receive a "Wow" from you :-) Lou
Nice Riv!!.. these are sharp but the original 63 to 65 Riv is my fave...

Awesome car Lou , my 2 favorite Riv's are the 65 and 67 . 1967 was the first year for the 430 motor and the chrome bar running through the grill, looks better than the 66. American personal luxury coupe's of the mid to late 60's are amazing . Winning lottery ticket buys 65 riv GS ,66 Toronado, 67 riv GS , 68 Eldorado. Thanks Lou.

Sweet Riviera! Love Buicks more Buicks please
Hi Edmund, Happy to read you enjoy this "Sweet" car :-) When I find a good Buick, stay tuned, and you'll see it, Lou
White-letter tires do detract from the usual thin whitewall as presented from the factory. This car has the electro cruise but not the cornering lights that do finish off the front fenders. Overall though, a well-equipped non-GS 1967 Riviera. Many of these made it out of the factory without the power window option box checked which I never understood. Love the great condition and the black on black. Well done!

I took my driver's test at 16 in 1987 driving a 68 riv. It was olive gold metallic with an avacado Heather vinyl top and a 455. Didn't need to give it any gas to go. I want at 63/64 now.
