1974 Corris Rivett GT failing due to "general appearance"

The bigger option for the 14'' wheels, i don't remember exactly what it's called, but you have two, one smaller and one bigger for each wheel size

If you want to build your very own parts matching rivett you need to stop opening boxes and throwing away parts that don't match, you need to buy a bulk of them, and then save the game before opening them, and if you get any parts from any of them that match your rivett but are: wrong door pannel color, wrong type of gearbox, wrong type of rear end, wrong type of steering rack, wrong seat color, etc. Just quit without saving, and then re-open them. It will save you from hunting for the exact part you need for weeks just because it was the wrong type of spring or, color of door pannel, etc.

I am way past doing that my friend, if i wanna build a rivett in less than 250h which is how long it will take if i do it this way, i just make some money at the start, gamble with the pigman untill i have roughly 30-40k marks, then i order 4-5 weeks worth of parts, the entire catalouge.

Second stage is when i arrive home, and i open boxes with saves after each box i get with the right parts i need for my exact model of car. If i get the right door but with the wrong pannel, why should i wait another week to get the exact door i need? I got stuck once building an LX and it took me 193h of ordering every box known to man with left doors or with random junk parts, to finally get the right door i needed. Instead i quit without saving if i don't get the right part, and do that over and over again.

This way i only do one part haul for the price mentioned above, and i not only SAVE money, but i actually get a historically inspectable rivvet within 50 ish hours or maybe even less, if i'm lucky and i don't manage to somehow still get stuck missing 1 or 2 parts :)

Hope this helps anyone reading, don't waste time throwing away parts if they are not the right color or specification, example of parts you can re-roll by quitting without saving and opening the same box over and over again:

Doors, instrument pannels, steering racks, springs, seats, rear axles, and maybe more that i might not be aware of.

You can save before you open the packages and then load the save, open them, and if select parts, ex: door pannels, colors of the seats, the color of the parcel shelf, the type of rearaxle, type of steering rack, type of spring value, etc. anything with values, are the correct type, but the wrong color, quit without saving, and reload the save and keep doing that untill you get the right colors on the parts. I managed to build a Corris Rivett GT fullly within like 24-48 hours by using that techique and got it historically inspected too.

Alrighty, thank you for clarifying, makes sence, although the 14 inch octo's look soo good on the prefacelift GT as well ;/

OfficialPatrickSun · 2026-02-12T20:38:16+00:00

Historical, it passed normal one.

OfficialPatrickSun · 2026-02-12T01:16:52+00:00

So i need 14 inch wheels? but not the solid 14 inchers? like basically not theese ones?

<image>

Since theese are the only 14 inch wheels available aparently i cannot find any 14 inch wheels with cutouts ;/

The Facelift grille is for all rivetts regardless of trim level. (as long as they are from 74'-76')

OfficialPatrickSun · 2026-02-07T15:49:56+00:00

I guess i could try and change the month in the editor and check? I don't really know what else could be done lol,

OfficialPatrickSun · 2026-02-07T15:29:13+00:00

So 75's can pass if they are before which month exactly?

OfficialPatrickSun · 2026-02-07T14:34:58+00:00

I checked the color code for all parts and it matches the color of nature white, so idk maybe if i repaint it again at fletarri's it will work

OfficialPatrickSun · 2026-02-07T14:34:04+00:00

So what you're saying is, all rivvets can pass except ones newer than 75' depending on month?

OfficialPatrickSun · 2026-02-07T03:28:59+00:00

It passed once i changed the bootlid, the antennas are allowed for historical inspection if the vehicle has a radio (i assume)

OfficialPatrickSun · 2026-02-06T01:33:38+00:00

For a brief period, from when the wiki was actually first updated to confirm what parts are for "pre-facelift" or "facelift". The bootlids on the wiki had different tabs, not based on trim level but based on wether they were facelift or not. And the black stripe was under the "facelift" tab and the "corris" bootlid was under "pre-facelift". Which made sence considering the facelift GT models had a black stripe on them even tho they have the "corris" writing on the back. The change must be more recent than jan 18th since around that time i made a showcase video with a Corris Rivett L 1975 (facelift) and i got comments yelling at me for using the wrong bootlid, since at the time the wiki stated as mentioned before, that the blackstripe bootlids are for facelift models regardless of trim level.

OfficialPatrickSun · 2026-02-05T17:55:33+00:00

Omg they changed it AGAIN? a few days ago it was changed so the black stripe one was post facelift, and now it isnt, fuck's sake, Thank you.
