I am starting restoration on my 1936 buick century 61 sedan.

I am having trouble in my choice of color. I may decide to change from the Casino Beige.

But I cannot seem to find an original paint chip set from these auto literature dealers on the web. I want to use an original color since I heard that judges will deduct serious points for a flawed color choice.

Any leads or contacts as to where I can get an original paint chips set?

Thanks

What are you going to compete in? BCA, AACA, etc? You may lose points for not being the original color. You should check with the rules for the competition. That may solve your problem!

How about some pictures?

I know a fellow who is a BCA judge, Dave Corbin.

I'll contact him. I believe he previously said I could change color but it must be a correct color offered for a 1936 Buick year.

I'll look into AACA for their opion too.

Thanks

I'll look into AACA for their take on the subject too.
