I have been looking for Interior color charts for my 1971 Skylark Custom Convertible. I have found all the exterior color charts but would like to find the Interior color charts. any help would be appreciated. Thanks o No: Chris
You can also google the Auto color library site. The chart is there under paint chips. Put in Buick and 1971 and both sides of the chart come up Then click on back and there is interrior chart. I could not copy and paste here for some reason.
See the boattail registry he z71 Dupont color chart 4 interior chart has the interior chips - Ditzler/PPG charts have interior codes and uses, plus there are tha campatabilty charts http://boattail-riviera-by-buick.com/71/COLORS%20TRIMS/index_gallery.php?sfpg=KiozKioqYzAwZTU0M2Q3YWYzN2Q4YTZjNjhhM2ZhZTMwMjdlOGE More color and trim information for all 71-73 Buick models in the library. rob
Rob, Thanks for posting that. I have never seen a color chip chart of interior colors. If he wants correct interior paint I have used the PPG lacquer with good results. Perfect match to my saddle interior.
PERFECT guys just what I was looking for My Skylark custom convertible was originally Rosewood Body color and from your Info Saddle interior, I always thought it was Sandlewood but Mine was to dark but the Saddle seams to be the closets color off the charts. Now anywhere that tells me if the Saddle came with the Rosewood exterior color??
OK where is that? Cowl Tag, I am missing a lot of tags because the previous owners changed body colors and did not do that great a Job.
You need to open the hood, and it will be on top of the firewall. It's a metal tag that is attached with two rivets. There are several numbers and letter codes on it...copy them and post the codes here so we can tell what colors you had from the factory. The tag is something like 2" x 4"
The Boattail registry Library - http://boattail-riviera-by-buick.com/library/dealership pubs/dealership pubs.php has the <center> </center> 1971 Buick Dealership Color & Trim Binder - Plus Options Lists & Pics <center> </center> 1971 Buick Dealership Binder - Exterior Color & Top Selector Insert - plus Riv Pictures (big exterior color cards ) these two lists all that information even has samples = this is actually a better color representation 71 custom vert is listed as having saddle avail, and not having sandalwood available. like on the hardtops. and being compatible with sales code N, production 76 (thats what shows on the trim tag) Rosewood ALL MODEL YEAR - ORDER & INSP FORMS,INVOICES - - has the 71 Lark order from that (the codes are sales that correspond to the production code on the fisher chart and your trim tag, plus give seat layouts by sub models) The fisher chart from above link will give your trim cods as it is on your body tag. how to read the body tags is in the library owners pubs section http://boattail-riviera-by-buick.com/library/owner info_manuals/owner info_manuals.php <center> </center> Documentation Decoding and Vehicle Matching Guide and more option order forms in <center> </center> Boattail Option Lists - Windows Stickers + Various Buick Order forms w/prices
I have a brochure I believe available to the general public at the showrooms. Shows interior colours & also a chart with interior/exterior factory colour recommendations.
My chart shows saddle is a recommended interior color for rosewood. And for the record the interior paint would be dark saddle...Also your cowl tag will most likely be 156 if split bench or 166 if buckets with saddle. Cowl tag looks like below
Interior code would be on the left side on the tag above the 03 in the tag I showed but not really visible here.
You Guys are AWESOME, Now I have to choke and cough a lot so I can go home sick just so I can find that TAG!!
