I asked before and I was told that the first one is a riviera, I have seen the second one advertise here before as riviera as well, are they both rivieras? Notice on the two tone, the black part is raised. ??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

They were originally made for the Riviera Motors of Oregon owned Volkswagen Dealerships in 1968 and later made available to all US VW Dealers as part of the Formula Vee range - listed as the 'GT Mag Type'.
