Reply To: metalic paint

[Anthony Costa]

I am one of the fallen that have a ’35 with metallic paint. For

penance, I researched the use of metallic paint. I believe that the

Classic Car Club accepts metallic paint back to 1927. It is an

accurate statement that you could obtain any color available at the

time on your P.A. By 1932,Hupp, Chrysler, Studebaker and others,

offered mettalics as standard colors. When asked what color my car is

I respond: prostitute blue, for only a madam would have ordered a P.A.

in this color. Unfortunately, I am becoming fond of the color though

people shout “circus wagon”” when I drive by.”
