Here's another question...on the page showing paint codes for 1956 Buick's, I'm not sure it lists the right color for this car. We have a completely original 1956 Buick Century...it's been stored for 21 years...only has 50,000 miles on it, and the interior is perfect. We need to repaint the car...in the 50's, they called the color "Titty" Pink. I'm really not trying to be rude...anyway, I only see Tahiti Coral...I don't see a pink paint...this is a pretty powdery pink color and it is the original color. Anyone know what it is?

Sasala, I looked at a paint chart of actual painted sample chips, and yes, the the Tahiti Coral-code letter N is the only one that would be called a pink shade. You can confirm this is the orignal color used on the car by looking at the paint code letters stamped on the body data plate. There will be an N listed there along with any other color codes if it is a two-tone ro three-tone.
