    Joe,

    Visit my picture gallery at www.65GS.com

    You don't need to sign up for a membership or anything to view the pictures.

    I believe that I've got pictures of both colors in the Gallery.

    Enjoy, :beer

    Gary (GK Moz) has a astro blue '65 vert. Pics are in this thread:
    http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?t=140814\

    I like both colors! I have a blue/blue '66 GS and a Silver/black '66 that was repainted in a '67 Platinum mist.....which is a pretty cool color. I uploaded pics of my cars to the V8 garage the other day. Look under my user name on page 2.

    Chris....when is your 'new' site being unveiled? :Brow:

    Walt my friend.. I'm glad you asked. :TU:

    I've actually got about 90% of it mocked up and ready to go and I'm trying for a January launch.

    I was trying for a October release and I ran into some back problems that laid me up for a while. Things are much better now and I have about three weeks vacation coming and I plan to use some of it working on the site.

    If you or anyone else out there has any pictures / ad's / or any other electronic information that you'd like to submit, please email it to me.

    I promise that what I have so far will make all of you 65 guys very happy. :pp

    Joe, the paint codes are on Chris's site.
    www.gransports.com
    on this page:
    http://www.65gs.com/1965/1965 GS O-matic/Color Pages/Astro-Blue-Poly.htm
    The site is being redone....I'm looking foreward to seeing what Chris has in store for us.:TU:
    There is a forum there, it would be nice if all the 65 guys on V8Buick would participate there also... This could be a great resource for those of us working on '65's!

    Chris, I'll be in touch. I have alot of 66 GS info that would also pertain to 65's.

    Hey guys, as of friday the 14th the 65 skylark was painted the original color of silver cloud poly, I like the way it came out, we did this in our garage dust and everything! letting it sit for a month before wet sanding and compound.
    then we can start putting it back together.
