The placement of the emblems on the rear panel are reversed, why's that?

Yes. Rare Rides aka Ebay Seller "spif100".

It was on Ebay December 2017 and, like almost all his auctions, it ended early. Some of the new Ebay auction pics are Rare Rides pics.

That color interior (tobacco?) wasn't available on a factory Riviera car, was it? Paint sticker is missing

That's probably correct.  Even though Tobacco looks great with Riviera, Riviera cars came with black interiors.  That said, occasional exceptions occurred, although said exceptions were far rarer for Hoffman Motors cars -- because Hoffman Motors ordered your car "for you", long in advance of you even entering a showroom -- than for European cars ordered through European dealerships.

 

I would strongly suspect a Riviera car with a Tobacco interior had either the exterior color changed or the interior swapped out at some point in it's history.

My Riviera car came to me with tobacco door panels and blue seats.
