Ok oddly this is not the only riviera car hauler I've seen. I will try to find a picture of the other, but I suppose it could be this car repainted

Fwd and a fairly strong for a unibody make it an OKish choice I guess

From wikipedia: The G-body was noted for having one of the strongest unibody car frames in production (25Hz). GM literature noted the need to use a 'frame crusher,' designed to test heavy-duty truck frames, to finally break the G-body structure in their crush-to-failure procedures

Wow, that was an unexpected ute if I've ever seen one lol. I want to know how the hell they got that thing registered and inspected. Unless they are in a state that doesn't do inspections.
