New to the forums. I own a 64 Buick Riviera that I'm slowly improving. Car is a older mild restoration, that had been parked for 10 years. Plans are to keep the stock drivetrain (340HP, 465ft/lb torque is no slouch), but improve the handling and reliability. Car's going to be lowered a couple inches, little bit stiffer springs, and put the headlights behind the driving light grills on the fenders. Eventually 4 wheel disc. I came here for the massive amount of good info on this site.

Thanks,

Welcome to the forum Steve... can't say I've seen many threads on Riviera but the community here really doesn't discriminate.

Josh at Ride Tech is a great resource for any RideTech options you might want to consider for your suspension/ride height plans, he seems to watch the 'suspension' sub-forum pretty closely so you're only a few clicks away.
