So what's its GM name? GM paint code? and what do I need to tell the paint store I want? Thanks in advance
Off the subject, but that is one beautiful car. I've always wanted one since I sat in one (at night with all of the dash lights on) in the lot at Town and Country Olds in Hopkins Minnesota in 1957. I Think I want one more than a '53 Hudson Hormet coupe or a '57 DeSoto Adventurer.
Yup, looks like Gold Mist Poly: http://www.tcpglobal.com/autocolorlibrary/aclchip.aspx?image=1957-oldsmobile-pg01.jpg
You should be able to verify that color number at TPC Global, Auto Color Library section. Got to agree with Tubman, very high on the want list. In the 50s a neighbor had a new gold 57 2dr ht. We moved in 61 or 62. I drove past there during high school in the very late 60s and it was still in the driveway. Edit; I typed too slow
Man that car is so cool I can't stop looking at it. I have been searching for that info for a few years off and on. thanks guys
.....That's what I love about this place. It's such a small, "like-minded" community. One guy puts the question out to the whole world and the person whose car he's talking about responds!....Oh and by the way, that Oldsmobile is breathtaking. Do you two even know each other?.....Don.
Thanks for the kind words. No I don't know him. I also just sent him a private meassage, he's welcome to come look at the color in-person.
You are too funny! Your edit reason just cracked me up, truely laughing out loud. You've got a wonderful sense of humor. We've GOT to meet this summer and hang out with our Olds'.
