Hello everyone! I have some cars to do full corrections (or just bring them back to life as much as I can) and I was wondering if anyone has worked on any of these particular cars. They range from 1948 to 1986-88 ish. I will post pictures of all the cars soon I just want to do my homework ahead of time and see if anyone has any experience with these cars and their paints and any recommendations if any.
Here is a list of the cars/ The cars on the links are not the actual cars just for a sense of what they look like.
1.) 1948 Dodge coupe

I am certain that this car has single stage paint especially for the year. I am going to try the Glaze #7 method on this vehicle.
2.) 1978 Lincoln Town Car Limo
This thing is like an ordinary town car but the limo version. From what I saw it looks like this car was sprayed with a clear coat.
3.) 1979 Cadillac Seville

4.) 1988 Tiffany (Apparently these cars are rare!)

So these are pretty much the cars. If anyone has any knowledge on these cars or has worked with them let me know what you recommend. I have done classic and single stage cars as well as lacquer finishes so I can eventually figure it out lol.
I am sure the cars from the 80 have clear coat on them as well.
