Regarding the '65 Buick Riveria GS - was this model offered in a convertible body style? </div></div>

No.

Yes.

Looking like this thread has run its course.

In a last effort for additional clarification, we have some 50's and 60's full-size cconvertibles with dual quads and AC.

Does anyone know of any convertible 'pony' cars with dual quads and air?

the 67 or 68 Shelby?

Only the '67 had dual-quads.

Correct,

Only the year Shelby that received dual quads atop the 428 big block (GT 500) was 1967, and only one of those was a convertible (and yes, it did have factory A/C also).

The '68 Ford-Shelby cars were all single 4bbl.

didn't the mid 60's GS (Skylark A bodies) come with dual flushers?

My dad had a red '57 Cadillac convertible with the &quot;batwing&quot; 2x4's and air conditioning (and a phone that filled half the trunk), and a white leather interior. He loved that car 'cuz a beer can just fit in the driver's ashtray. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/burnout.gif[/img]

----A lot of 65 Gran Sports have 425 dual quad conversions that have been done after the fact. None, to my knowledge, were ever delivered with dual quads. 65 Gran Sports are one of my favorite early muscle cars. Ive been looking for a very nice 65 4-speed (coupe or vert) for a long time and have come up empty. Still looking, although it would have to be very nice!......Bill S
