It’s been so long l’d have to look it up. If I remember correctly, it is a modern factory GM color that was very close to the original color when...
Switched to an NOS Cal Custom tube grille this spring that I’ve had in the garage for a a couple of years. It was time for a change.
Cal Custom single bar grille that I originally had in my 54’.
Interesting that those were 2 piece. I’ve never seen that. I still need a set of caps for my Fenton’s - they were wrecked last year when my car...
I lurk much more than I have posted here over the years. I was surprised to see that my number was 413. I'd take that 413 any day over a...
That 58' is dead on for the time and era. The perfect "street custom" if you will. It was the all-out show cars of the time that took things to an...
Has to be black or a very dark cast gray color would look cool too. Just so it’s darker than the wheel center. Sent from my iPhone using H.A.M.B.

Very nice set of 4 Goodyear Super Cushion 6.70 x 15” bias ply whitewall tires. All tires are in excellent shape with plenty of tread except one...
Thanks Mo. I always thought Watson did this car earlier. Guess I was wrong. Sent from my iPhone using H.A.M.B.
I would bet this car had wide whites and chromes or different wheel covers before the skinny whites and wire caps. Sent from my iPhone using...
RIP to the man that changed everything with his style and abilities... Not only was he a great painter - his own personal cars were some of...
U.S. Royal Masters... Hands down. I'm surprised that Coker still hasn't done these yet...
I'm wondering if anyone has tried running some Buick finned drums on the rear of a Buick (like a Riviera for example) What got me wondering...
Awesome pics man! That's my silver 63' Buick on Supremes, my Dad's white 65' Galaxie with the spiders and rings, and my brothers blue 63' Olds on...
First things first... I know it's a pain in the ass to do, but the window tint needs to go - big time Personally, I would leave the skirts on...
That looks exactly like the factory silver color on my 1963 LeSabre... I think Buick had that color in it's line up for a while in the sixties...
I'm surprised to see that Astro referred to that early design as "supreme". That design as well as the steel slots were the first designs that...
I drive back and forth over that bridge a few times every week to visit with customers of mine. It's a scary thought man... Worse than that, a...
I'd run red painted steelies before I'd run those things. Ha ha!
Forget the color of the wheels... I personally think that wide whites would make more of an impact on your car than anything else would. Save up...
I love those cars man! I presently own a 63 LeSabre and have owned a 62 Electra and a 63 Wildcat in the past. Good luck finding one man - they are...
My thoughts exactly... Keep it simple and clean
Ken Esajian... Enough said.
If it's good and cured it can handle the occasional splash...
I think they are in Penn... I haven't talked with this guy in years. Does anyone know if he is still in business? Or have his number? Thanks.
I like the look of a silvery blue scallop over black myself. Check out pics of Andy Southard's 58' Impala and that other dudes car with the skirts...
Obviously chicks dig 8-lugs! (i do too - and that pic!) Keep them man! I would never swap those out to a 5 lug set-up...
