    Well i finally pulled the ole fiddy Buick out of the shop for the first time since i started working on her.Well you would think after 7 months of walking around her i would likely have come up with a color pic by now RIGHT ...........WRONG. I am thinking somewhat about a dark maroon pearl or a suede black with wide whites and some type of a full set of caps.So if someone would please color me in i would be very thanful.....And please if you got any sugestions on other colors or front grille to use in the opening i am wide open UPFRONT MANY THANKS FOR THE HELP!!

    You're changing the wheels, RIGHT?!?

    I'd start digging through OEM color charts. I can see that car in two colors, an ice blue metallic or a very dark blue metallic. I think suede black is going out of style.

    Nice lookin' car man. I'd say go with gloss black, deep burgandy, or a deep blue. Something glossy to show off them beautiful curves.

    No doubt,I will be running stock wheels with www and the coolest old school caps i can find,,still looking for the cap's
     
  9. Maybe dark burgundy metallic with a pearl white roof? Or solid dark burgundy with a creamy white roof? Or burgundy all over with a creamy white panel along the lower half of the side that tapers down the whole length of the car? Just some ideas.

    Definitely paint it glossy though to highlight and show off those "dangerous curves"!

    Are you going to have skirts in the back?
