  1. yes it was under a repaint ,about 40 years ago i carefully removed a layer of paint to see the pin stripping .the car is a 32 57S maglauglin buick made in regina canada .i will take a few pics of the stripping on the that i did on the car ,i did want to duplicate it exactly but just was unsucsesful  so i did a single wider single instead of a double that way i could tape and air brush a stripe at a time ,pics to follow ,thanks Bob for all you do for the 32 buick community .........

  2. these are pics of old pics mine had a double stripe at the top and bottom of the top door crown ,when they turn to go up the pillar two turns into one witch makes two above the doors.the guys that did this were very skilled i think that was all they did .

  3. yes the original paint would be lacquer,so good paint thinner will soften it up all other paints will wrinkle.i would carefully remove layers of paint to find the stock color ,and match that, colors in those years are simple for a paint store to match.see if you can find a spot 3x3 inch and polish it up ,between the fender and the body maybe.

  4. Thanks for your kind words,love you pics will post one with the trunk on, if it ever stops raining .ya nothing like going down a bucket list,did the fast sports car sold that,keeping the harley for a while .dont go in the ground with unfinished dreams.thanks,ya i like the trunk look on the car ,it will stay,it did come with a trunk rack.

  5. cant see the rack holding water there is like 30 holes in it,but could flip it back over if need be .the trunk and rack are the same size just dose not fit inside.the lid when open is not at all close to the body so that is no problem,an it is easier to fuel than with the rack in the other position .think it looks good anyway if not will sell and move on ,just always wanted one,got a lot of things on my bucket list.a least it will be one less.
