As for the sill plate, the one in my 56 Super is also flat. But don't go by that for the 55 Roadmaster. Hope someone chimes in with the correct answer on that. thanks John shes now nearing completion and should be complete in a few days hopefully Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrEarl 7,165 Posted December 19, 2016 Allan, if like the 54's the Roadmasters sill plate have a pressed tin finish somewhat mimicking the turned dash. I think I have already looked for you or someone else and all I have are corroded beyond repair. Pretty sure they are reproduced Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

old-tank 3,110 Posted March 2, 2017 All of the the other cars at the show look shabby in comparison. Years ago I met a restorer that painted all of his projects black (first) just to be sure there were no defects...then painted a different color. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kosage Chavis 796 Posted March 3, 2017 Mr Allen, your Buick is gorgeous. Never seen a Buick with the gold plated grill, but I must say, I like it. Very quick turn around too. I can see that you also had luck finding the trunk name script. Please don't be shy with more pictures. Thanks for sharing with us Sir. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
