Care of original paint (mid 60's Laquer)

[black69]

Can anything be done to slow the cracking/spiderwebbing of original laquer paint?

My '65 GTO is all original; the vertical surfaces look pretty good but the horizontal surfaces, primarily the rear of the hood and the deck lid as a whole, are pretty crazed and gradually getting worse and worse.

Can anything be done (besides repainting)?

Consider using black turtle wax products (there is more than one grade of kits out there). I had good luck with my original paint car. Fills in all kinds of imperfections on darker cars. Use it on your old glass too, works great. Then I coat the body over with mothers paste.
