    Want to repaint valve covers and do some touch ups...I would really like to have SAME color...not something close. Anybody have any luck? Thinking of getting my exhaust manifolds ceramic coated...

    Was the 300 still green in 1967?
    Bill Hirsch paints, and POR-15 both offer quality paint in Buick Green.
    POR-15 also has a manifold paint that is said to be more durable than most other exhaust paints....I personally haven't tried it yet, but will.

    i'm showing the last year of the Blue-Green engines in 64. Buick 'Medium Red' was 67-69 and then Buick went to 'Dark Red' for 70-76 for the small blocks.

    wow, and a body-color firewall. My 64 firewall was painted black. Is that a Canadian-built car? I wonder if it matters.

    Yes Adam,

    Canadian car, Oshawa built, previous owner just sent me original dealer plastic dealer folder, protecto plate card, warranty book and bill sale. All in better condition than my 1st grade report card that Mom has tucked away. Am stoked!
