Posted this over on General Gassing......but no-one seems to care

Found these Photoshops whilst surfing:

A new Riviera?


Here's the original, from '71. What a stunning looking car - I do love the "boat tail"



I really like the look of this one. I assume they used the Cadillac Sixteen concept as a starting point. Still, put the underpinnings of the next gen Camaro under this and whoa boy!

Nice car, and the rear shape is a bit Corvette C2-ish...

Looks like it could be the General's answer to the Crossfire...

Thats is ace, I do love the retro vehicle movement that is going on at the moment, especially the new Camaro, but that is very tasty indeed, what about Studebaker? now that would be marvellous to see!!!

Nice...I used to run a '65 Riviera it was a beast of a car

The new concept does the original justice, just give it a big block and RWD...

JenkinComp - do you have any pictures of your old Riviera? I must admit it was the one reason I used to watch Due South (TV prog for those not aware!)

Love the Riveria shape from the original - the new look isn't too shabby either.

I can't help think the Crossfire appearance doesn't hit the spot, perhaps that contributes to why I haven't seen many on the roads.

Here's where the photos originated. Let's hope someone at Buick as the balls to put them in production.

The more I see of this one, the more I like it. It's has elegance and muscle all at the same time. Gorgeous.
