Info: The 1970 Buick Riviera Muscle Car saw a redesign which added rear fender skirts and the elimination of the retractable headlights.
A new standard engine was introduced, a 455 cid V8, which sported 370 bhp and a whooping 510 lb-ft of torque. Despite the increase in engine performance, weight also ballooned up, resulting in slower 1/4 mile times. Coming soon from KRAZY KREATIONS in Denver, Colorado a 1970 Buick Big Block 455 Muscle Car. Project start date 8-03-06.
