? for Buick Riviera gurus

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by TIMMY P, Jan 12, 2013.

  1. I have a 63 Riviera I bought recently and on the center console there is a tag that reads "Built expressly for" and there is a name underneath. Was this something that was nomally done or is this something that is special. Ive tried to google the name but I havent come up with anything.
     
  2. You could buy those tags from the dealer or from JC Hwittney back in the '60s. It could have been a custom orderd car or it could just be a googa that someone put on it.

    Is it a car with rare or lots of options?
     
  3. Wow that was quick, It has some options but I dont think it has anything extroardinary. Thanks for the reply porkn******.

    This was an item from Buick. There was a card to fill out and send in to get your personalized tag. In '65 they said "Custom built for ____". It was a FREEBEE.

    Man, I've never had the fortune of being able to have a car "Built Expressly For" me. :( Oh well, maybe some day.
