Thanks for grabbing those pics and info for the thread.
FYI for anyone reading - That's a late 1963 Bus, I emailed the seller to let him know it's not a '62.
Also  - The stickers are awesome, get some!  |
X2 on the decals, they look great and will look better on my vert one day 
Thanks Chris.

Loving the period Riviera memorabilia & articles. Makes the picture become clearer. Let’s get some more up!
Oh…and who celebrates a 12th anniversary?

Have a friend here in Fresno, who owns a 55 oval. The birth certificates says it was shipped into San Fran; and it came into his family in 1967.
Is there any way to track down the previous owners (1955-1967?)
