The engine in your picture is a 67.

And that air-cleaner ended up on a lot of cars because it's so cool looking.

As to color, Jake, here's are the interior choices: http://www.oldcarbrochures.com/static/NA/Buick/1969_Buick/1969_Buick_Brochure/1969%20Buick-10.html

Here are the exterior colors: http://www.oldcarbrochures.com/static/NA/Buick/1969_Buick/1969_Buick_Prestige_Brochure/1969%20Buick%20Prestige-72-73.html

Silver with black might be a nice choice for this. Or Azure Blue with a white interior.
