Can we use it for next weeks lotto numbers ?

Does anyone know did buick ever run an ad with special coupe or a century coupe.All I've ever seen are 4 door models Thanks Ken.

I took one of my emblems's and 600 grit wet sandpaper and lightly tried to sand across the raised letters with the paper on a block to keep it uniform. In very little time the color changed to what looks like brass. I've spent many hours buffing my stanless trim so I'm pretty confident what I have is not stainless either brass or copper wrapped around a steel core like the nose emblem either way I think it will have to be platted. Thanks for all the input and if anyone else has any it would be welcomed. Ken

Thank's for the info I will take a closer look maybe all I have to do is buff it and paint it.

I have the 37-38 story and found it to be very well done and very informative. It is soft cover spiral bound,got it about 4 yr's ago and actually just pulled it out the other day to browse thru I'll look to see if I have any contact info.

If this emblem is like the nose emblem it's copper wrapped around a piece of steel ( I believe ).

The frame was pore 15 and the lines I bent and flared them myself going off the old line [ saved alot of money that way] and the stands I origionally made for my 70 gs frame and just modified for the 38

My 38 started out as a business coupe but I am converting it over to an opera coupe . I purchased the car in 2003 I am going to try and put it back as close to original as possible, will attach pic's as I go along.
