The 1969 Riviera was Buick's second-generation personal-luxury coupe (1966-1970), carried over with revised interior and exterior trim. It competed with the Ford Thunderbird and Cadillac Eldorado; the dramatic boat-tail styling would not arrive until the third generation in 1971.

About This Decode
This VIN does not encode the engine, so the engine details shown are representative of the model as built and not VIN-confirmed. (Most pre-1972 GM VINs do not carry an engine code.)
