[Questions on paint?]

Thanks for the info.

1) Can anyone tell me the color the semi gloss primer was that used by fisher?

2) For a frame off restore, do professional restorers paint the bottom of the body with primer and overspray, or paint the bottom of body fully the body color?

Thanks

[Questions on paint?]

To tell the truth, I have note decided on color yet.

1) Are the formulations all on one page?

2) If so, could you scan it and post it?

3) Where would be the best place to see photos of cars with each color?

Thanks

[Questions on paint?]

I have some questions about paint on a 1937 Buick Roadmaster (model 81):

1) Can anyone recommend a paint and color that would best match the original paint of the FRAME and CONTROL ARMS?

2) Should the firewall be painted to match the overall paint color of the body for car to be original?

3) Was the bottom of the body originally painted to match the overall color of the body.

3) I found a chart (see attached) that gives original Duco colors. Is there a cross reference that matches the original 37 Buick colors to a current manufacturer?

Thanks

[Length of Doors 36 and 37 Buicks?]

I'm trying to determine length of the bottom of 36 and 37 Buick Doors for model 40, 60, and 90.

My 37 Roadmaster model 81 has rear door bottom of 21 5/8 inches and front door bottom of 38.

1) Would owners of other 36 & 37 models mind measuring and sharing dimensions of doors near the bottom (see picture).

Thanks

Thanks very much for your help

[Dimensions of instrument cluste bezel 1947 Chrysler New Yorker?]

I'm trying to verify if an instrument cluster bezel is from 47 Chysler New Yorker.

I think it looks like the attached picture.

Does someone have one that they can measure the overall height and width?

Thanks

[Can anyone identify these bumper guards?]

Thanks for your help

[Can anyone identify these bumper guards?]

Based on photos, I just realized that the bumper guards on the front of my 37 Buick Roadmaster are not correct for that car.

My Grandfather must have replaced them at some time.

Can anyone identify what vehicle these bumper guards might belong to?

Thanks

[1937 Buick Roadmaster Dash Parts (sheet-metal and map light)]

My 81 series Roadmaster has an overall width of the dash or about 46 inches.

I was told that the dash out of the 60 series Buick Century has dash with the same width.

Visually from pictcures the dashes also look the same.

Can anyone confirm wether the dash on the 60 series will fit in an 80 series Roadmaster?

Thanks

[Dash on 1937 Buick series 40, 60, 80, and 90]

Thanks for the feedback.

I have not tried to remove the dash yet. Thought I read they were welded in, perhaps that was misinformation.

1) Can someone confirm that the dash was not welded in on a 37 Buick Series 80?

2) Could anyone who has a 40, 60 or 90 series measure the overall width of the dash for me (where dash meets wall). I'll measure and post the width of the 80 series in case that info is helpful to someone else.

Thanks

You were right on your description and I now have the seat removed.

Thanks for your help.

[Removing front seats from 1937 Buick Roadmaster]

Are these bolts found on top of the wooden sliding base?

I removed some bolts from there and the front of the wooden sliding base feels loose in the front, but the back is still attaced to the track system.

[Removing front seats from 1937 Buick Roadmaster]

Sounds trivial, but can someone provide guidance on how to remove the front seats?

I have the front lower cushion removed.

Looks like there are four bolts with nuts under the car, but cannot see the heads to put a wrench on the top side.

1) Are these the correct bolts to remove the seats?

2) Do I need to dissassemble something else to access the bolt heads on the top?

Thanks for the pointers.

Tom, nice looking car. Probably looked like mine did when my Grandparents bought it used in '42. Blue paint job and 30 years in the elements has taken it's toll.

Hopefully in a couple of years I'll have her back.

1) Sounds trivial, but would any of you gentlemen know how to remove the front seats?
