Mike Savage has enjoyed great business success in life. As the founder and CEO of a multi-million dollar virtual accounting firm, Savage knows how to get the best out of a team. Savage recognized early on in his career that small businesses could benefit from the same big four level of service when it came to their accounting practices. It was in that spirit that he created 1-800 Accountants. The business model was a clear focus on eliminating complicated bookkeeping and tax preparation stress for small business owners. In doing so, 1-800 Accountant stands today as one of the largest, small business accounting firms in the nation with over 200,000 businesses as clients. Now, he’s turning his attention to philanthropy. For years New Canaan’s Michael Savage and his wife Sandra have been helping Honduran children and families suffering in poverty by donating clothes, bedding, books and other necessities to families in need of help and a kind heart. To that end, Savage has formed a foundation to raise awareness about the need to feed and clothe children in Honduras. His non-profit organization is called the Savage Rivera Foundation.

4. WHY THE 1965 BUICK RIVIERA IS AMONG THE COOLEST CLASSIC
AUTOMOBILES EVER BEFORE MADE

5. THE 1965 BUICK RIVIERA WAS FAIRLY AN AUTOMOBILE. LAUNCHED IN
THE YEAR I WAS BIRTHED, IT WAS THE LAST YEAR FOR THE "INITIAL
GENERATION" RIVIERA DESIGN - AS WELL AS WITHOUT A DOUBT THE
VERY BEST. AN UNIQUE, WELL-KNOWN BODY DESIGN THAT INCLUDED A
SIZABLE CABIN AND HOUSED A POWERFUL V8 ENGINE HAS
CURRENTLY BECOME AN IN-DEMAND TREASURE OF VINTAGE CAR
COLLECTORS. I WAS PRIVILEGED ADEQUATE TO HAVE ONE FOR A
COUPLE OF MONTHS IN MY YOUTH. BELOW ARE A FEW OF IT'S POWER
STATS:

6. * 0-60 IN 8 SECONDS
* QUARTER MILE IN 16 SECS
* FULL THROTTLE OBSERVED 115 MPH
* MILEAGE 13.2 MPG

7. WITH A 401 WILDCAT UNDER THE HOOD, I HAD NO TROUBLE
OBTAINING WHERE I WANTED TO GO. AND ALSO WHILE THE BODY WAS
HUGE, IT WAS QUITE MANEUVERABLE THANKS TO THE STANDARD
EQUIPMENT POWER STEERING AND TIGHT HEAVY-DUTY SUSPENSION.
AS WELL AS THAT CLAIMS ARRIVING RAPID CAN'T BE IN STYLE?
CHECK OUT SOME OF THE FEATURES IT FEATURED:

8. * FRONT PAIL SEATS
* BUCKET-STYLE REAR SEATS
* CRUISE SHIP CONTROL
* TILT STEERING WHEEL
* CENTER CONSOLE FLOOR-SHIFTER & STORAGE COMP.
* POWER WINDOWS, INCLUDING WING-WINDOW!

9. * CHAUFFEUR SIDE 4-WAY POWER SEAT
* COOLING
* AM/FM RADIO WITH POWER ANTENNA
THIS 1965 CARS AND TRUCK HAD MORE STUFF THAN MY 1985
TOYOTA DID! I CAN REMEMBER CRANKING UP THE RADIO WITH THE
CRUISE CONTROL ON DOING 75 WHILE CHANGING MY POWER SEAT,
THE TILT WHEEL, AS WELL AS THE POWER WING WINDOWS. AH TO BE
YOUNG AGAIN - THOSE WERE THE DAYS.

10. BUT THE REAL FUNCTION THAT MADE THE 1965 BUICK RIVIERA STICK
OUT FROM ALL THE OTHER YEARS WERE THE HIDDEN HEADLIGHTS.
PUT HIDDEN BY THE CLAM-SHELL COVERS THAT OPENED UP AND
CLOSED AUTOMATICALLY ON THE EXTERNAL EDGES OF THE
AUTOMOBILE, THEY WERE RETURNED INTO THE GRILLE FOR ALL
FUTURE BODY STYLES WHERE THEY HAD ACTUALLY BEEN THE
PREVIOUS 2 YEARS.

11. BACK IN THE MID-80'S THESE VEHICLES WERE A LOT LESS
COMPLICATED TO DISCOVER, BUT THERE ARE SOME INITIAL VEHICLES
STILL SITTING IN DRIVEWAYS OUT THERE IS COUNTRY AND ALSO
COUNTRY AMERICA. YOU MAY BE ABLE TO CHOOSE ONE UP FOR
$1,000 IF YOU DO YOUR RESEARCH. LESS POPULATED AREAS AWAY
FROM LARGE METRO CITIES ARE YOUR BEST OPTION FOR FINDING ONE
OF THESE HIDDEN TREASURES.

12. FIND ONE, INVEST A LONG TIME AND/OR CASH RIGHT INTO RESTORING
IT, AS WELL AS YOU WILL CERTAINLY HAVE SOMETHING UNIQUE. IT'S A
GREAT FINANCIAL INVESTMENT ALSO; YOU SIMPLY CAN NOT LOSE
RESTORING TRADITIONAL AMERICAN AUTOMOBILES.
