Guest 70 Electra Posted August 31, 2001 Share Posted August 31, 2001 Don 55,<BR>In your lengthy posting of the 66 Wildcat build sheet, you refer to the paint code of "Y" (or "YY", or "Y-2") as being burgundy.<P>Am I missing something, or has your car's color been changed? <P>I've never actually owned a 66 Buick that was "Y" color, but I've had several other 66 GM cars (Chevrolets and a Pontiac) that were painted code "Y". ALL of them were pale yellow, not burgundy. In fact, my experience is that the "Y" code was used for many model years by GM to signify the pale yellow color (including my 70 Electra). <P>While I agree the "-2" after the color means black top, it is my contention that the primary color indicated by code "Y" on your build sheet is actually yellow, and not burgundy.<P>Any comments from others?

Guest 70 Electra Posted October 26, 2001 Share Posted October 26, 2001 Don't know about your specific dealer, but the only Chillicothe that I'm aware of is in southcentral Ohio, not too far from West Virginia. <P>Since the car was built in Delaware, it's more plausible that it was sent to a dealer in southern Ohio, rather than Missouri (where a Kansas City built car would be a more common sight.)<P>If you want to confirm this, you could contact the town library and see if they have old phone books that might list your dealer. Another source is the town's business records, which will shown when dealerships started, closed, and changed names. Usually the chamber of commerce can advise who to contact for this type of info. Sometimes you get really lucky and make contact with an old timer that knows some of the infor, first hand!<p>[ 10-26-2001: Message edited by: 70 Electra ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 5, 2001 Share Posted November 5, 2001 I actually bought a rim from Skip Erb (Jr?). He indicated that his father owned the previous mentioned Skip Erb dealership at one time.

Guest Posted August 11, 2002 Share Posted August 11, 2002 Great work everyone. I have added these codes. I will be posting them soon. I have also changed the format to a all text format. No more search engine. The idea was to have people enter them themselves but for not it is not working so I am going back to an all text sheet.

The current dealership that I believes handles all GM's is Barnes-Baker Motors. Not many Buick specific dealers left in the smaller towns.
