When better Buicks were built John Roberts built them

Following John Kuvakas’ excellent “My Take” interview with John Roberts are pictures of one in a series JR did a few years back when he performed his magic on a run of a dozen or so of ‘56 Buick Century 4 door hardtops that were available upon special order by the customer who could choose the color combination. Some beautiful Buicks were the result.  Shown here is the car I ordered, a three tone finished in factory colors of two-tone green and white. Three-tone combinations were in vogue in the mid ‘50’s. Below is the image showing the colors I chose. Below that is a picture of the model on the bench of JR’s assembly plant showing other cars in progress as well.  Then below that is the finished model.
