Hey guys have any of you heard of this at the bottom of the rear window on top of the tray toward the trunk (Oh! Interior is White with Black dash top - carpet - side kick plates - carpet & rear tray) where the rear window mouldings & end caps meet together at the bottom of the wind the piece going across the tray is colored in aqua mist & yes it is lacquer paint (didn't age well) a few friends of mine say there was a bulletin in December of 1963 that the 64 olds cutlass f85 & jet star there was a Dealer bulletin that stated that moulding was suppose to be the same color as the rear package tray & the Dealer was instructed to correct itAlso I was told it was more present in the Canadian car shipment of that yearI'm asking cause the car was bought new and has ALWAYS been in the family since Delivery - should I make the correction after 58 yearsI'm asking cause Oldsmobile on some cars would grab prepainted panels when they were low or out and strip & paint with the rest of the car the exterior & in many cases the inner panels could be another colorAny feed back would be greatly appreciated

Yep.
I’ve heard about it and seen it on my white 65 holiday coupe.
It’s didn’t appear aqua mist to me…looked Lucerne blue….but same idea. I’ve even seen a few little hints of the same color in the trunk and rear tail panel area.

Not sure of the reason why…but my car does have a blue interior.

Yes yes - if I took a liberal view it would have a bluish to it but I also found that color in the trunk panels in certain placesThe IRONY is outside of 2yrs in Vietnam Mom's car has always been under my nose & obviously it's never gotten a scratch or anything. So what I see Now guess growing up never looked that hard is the way it was delivered.
Question still arises should I make the correction or leave it there -- Oh! The car was made in Lansing & bought in New York ,-- I think Yonkers or Westchester can't remember all I know Dad worked at Yonkers Raceway (his 2nd job night time) but I know he bought it for Mom up there (we lived in Queens)
