ASC did this conversion along with the Cadillac...many of the part interchange between both vehicles...it is a well engineered and built vehicle.

Pretty rare too...1 in 50.

Looks like a riviera I had worked on before. It was front wheel drive but the motor sits like a rear wheel drive car. Crazy. Even the guy behind he parts counter didn't believe me.

Sorry for the sideways picture but this is a riviera I just picked up. It is very strange how it's a standard engine orientation but front wheel drive.

It's an 84 t-type

All the Rivieras through 1985 had longitudinal engine placement.

Nice looking car by the way.

Thank you. I'm excited to find such an original one in nice shape.

Probably best dashboard ever made by man. Cool style outside too.
