Default New guy from Houston

New guy from Houston here.
I have a '69 Riviera 'survivor car'.
It's Azure blue with a white vinyl top and pearl white interior.
It sat in my neighbors garage since 1982 until I bought it a few years ago. It has only 50,525 original miles. Still need to do a few things to make it legal to drive (mainly fix horn).
I never liked the nose-high stance on these cars so I cut a coil on the front springs to get it down, I think it sits perfect now. Hopefully, that's not too offensive, I am a hot rodder after all.

Hey Gore,
I haven't really been looking for parts for mine, so I'm not sure. Occasionally stuff pops up on ePay. If there's a classifieds section on here you might check that or Craigs List or even www.kijiji.com in/around your area. You have any junk/salvage yards in your area? If not you might check with Desert Valley (www.dvap.com) and see if they can help.
