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 .........

If the paint chips it is to thick,just assemble and touch up.

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.

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.

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.

There should be a leather cover over the ball to catch the oil,mine leaks about a once after it is parked after a hour of driving,just add more,thicker the better.i think they always will leak,have seen pics of really nice one with spill trays under them.
