Dear friends, just for the weekend,  I want to leave this photos for you to enjoy from our new 1968 Buick Electra.

The model is still in prototype stage, but will be in the market in the first half of 2022.

I'm not usually a big fan of 4 door cars but this one is very nice and I will buy it.  Great period colors!

A neighbor had a '67 in that brown color. He loved that car, then it got stolen in the 1970s.

BTW Sergio, have any of your models been supplied with Tennessee plates yet?

I remember that very popular color combo with the lighter vinyl roof referred to as "Coffee and Cream". Beautiful! Please put me down for one, Sergio!

Full-size 60s Buick? There's the sweet spot for me, pre-ordering for sure.

I just revisited this, as I am greatly looking forward to adding the '68 Electra to my Buick collection.

In trying to decide which color to pre-order, I looked at the official 1968 Buick color charts and don't see "Autumn Bronze" or "Verdoro Green".

Both of those are listed as 1968 Pontiac colors. Anyone know more about this than I do?

So Sergio....it will be available in the next 3 days? 🤣 

The chrome moulding on the brown car really stands out.

I'm bumping this because I'm very curious if anyone has any better info on this...

@moe-parr Based on my research, those colors are for Pontiacs. The green is from 1967 to 1970 with a variation of the color from 67/68 to 69/70. Reference photos are of got and firebird models. The bronze was primarily used on the firebirds, could not find any reference photos on any full size Pontiacs. I found nothing to suggest that these colors are for the Buick. The colors are both beautiful but used on the Pontiacs. I personally would prefer authenticity but that’s how I roll.

@chazy-r 

Thanks, I wonder why those colors were chosen for the '68 Buicks, then?

(It won't stop me from buying one anyway, and I'm leaning toward the green one.)

@mg-harv Hey Harv,

just checked auto color library. No mention of the bronze color for the 67 Buick?? Maybe special order?
