Re: Original paint cars
Tommy, factory flaws were very common. Our 70 Orange Cooler has plenty of them..runs, dirt in the paint and lots of over spray!! Who needs that slick, clear coat, 3 foot deep finish...give me some bumps and bruises any time

Re: Original paint cars
Hi Tommy,
Have you taken a paint gauge to the car? It is a pretty good way to determine what is original and what is not. Of course, this is not a substitute for a trained eye familiar with original paint from the era but it sure is a good way to get confirmation of what your gut tells you. I have owned literally dozens of original paint cars and if you take a gauge to yours feel free to email me the readings and I can help you decipher what is going on. Here is a good place to get a good, basic paint gauge/meter for short money : http://www.wholesalepaintmeters.com/...FQcCswodr2zi6g Colin

Re: Original paint cars
And even after they left the factory, things still happened.
Like brake fluid dripping from the car above it on the transporter!
