1959 Buick Colors

Buick carried over a few colors introduced in 1958 and past years. Blue and red (or kind of red) colors were very popular in 1959. A color like Copper Glow would be very unique today. In addition, 13 colors were available, which could be solid or as two-tone combination, which means, roof and body could have different colors.

Note: Color accuracy varies by computer/device settings and depends on the actual light. (See complete 1959 Buick color chart for Duco Paint numbers.)
