First, the bad news: if its next owner wants to show it, this 1973 Buick Riviera, for sale on Hemmings.com, will need a bit of body and interior work to make it presentable. Now, the good news: the current owner claims this is a one-family car until 2013, showing just 97,120 miles on the odometer, and is all original (which raises the question of whether or not the next owner will want to pull the dents and risk damaging the Green Gold Metallic paint). For those with the proper skill set, it wouldn’t take much effort to turn this unmolested driver-quality boattail into a show-stopper. From the seller’s description:
