Thread: 1958 Buick Limited Convt color scheme

    1958 Buick Limited Convt color scheme

    I'm interested to buy a 58 limited convt. (see attachment)
    The car is all red with red interior.
    I would like to change her in two tone red/white.
    Does anybody knows the original paint pattern for this car if any exists?

    Thanks

    maybe other interior possible

    I noticed that none of the 150 viewers could give a comment to my question and believe there has been no two tone 58 limited convt.
    Does anyone know if there was an option to choose from different interior colors for a red exterior car?

    I have a 58 limited hardtop, and have had it for about 40 years. During that time I've collected up every scrap of factory information for it, that I could find. I have the factory sales book that shows all combinations of interior/ extierior colors. Your car is totaly correct with red/red colors. Limited's never came with a 2 tone exterior. There were only about 6 interior colors that went with the colors available. Convertables only came with leather interiors in 4 colors: silver mist, blue mist, green mist, and red. In all the years I've owned the car I've never passed up the chance to look at any Limited possiable. They all conformed to the book exactly. Does not mean there could not be a "special" or two, factory preped, but I've never seen one. Hope this helps. alleycat

    My boss has a '58 Century Convertible. It's just as beautiful of a car as that. He gave me some old dealership lit. for the 1958 model Buicks, from what I can see, I agree with alleycat, it is an original color scheme. If you can buy it and it's what you want, go for it!
