Pekka Wizzzard Mannermaa's 1972 Buick
1972 Buick Riviera Boattail owned and restyled by Pekka Wizzzard Mannermaa of Finland. The paint on the Wizzz Riviera was a major paint task done over a two years span. Before the paint was applied, the car was first restyled by cutting the front bumper, radiusing the rear wheel wells and by "sectioning" the taillights. Pekka wanted to give the car a flat paint job which would have the "reflections" painted on. The car featured aluminium side panels and fender lips painted on and painted louvers on the hood. Pekka sold the car, and it is currently owned by Jarmo Salminen.[1]
