Richard of C ◊ 2007-04-21 16:37	Reading in "Cars Of The Stars" published in 1974, written by George Barris and John Scagnetti ( which means it was actually written by Scagnetti) The Buick Riviera was customized by Barris for actor James Darren. Page 13. Of course this book is full of inaccuracies and Barris took credit for a lot of cars that others did at this time. So lets say it was done by Barris.....
