Hi
How do I tell if the Riviera's that are on my car are original period dealer fit ones or reproductions from a later stage? Are there any markings or any other way to tell? Thanks |

Thanks for all the info guys.
I just got my car and it has the Rivieras on, but they are kind of tatty and so don't look great. I'd like to get some Fuchs or Pedrini's, but of course they cost $$$$ here in the Uk (if you can get them at all), but may look at restoring these if I could find a way to do it so they look good. Also I've lots of other things to do on the car where that money for Fuchs/Pedrini's could go! I'm also missing the centre caps, and have tried searching but can't seem to find any replacements anywhere (either originals with the backward r or some kind of decent reproduction). I'll put some pictures on here on Sunday of what mine are like. |
