1932 5 window deluxe coupe (Model 32558). What color should the interior metal garnish moldings be?
I have seen woodgrain on some and exterior body color on others.
Thanks

The 32558 Deluxe interior had Walnut wood grain garnish moldings.

Thanks Chipper. I guess they painted the brown and then added dark streaks to simulate woodgrain?

That is basically how you do it. The base color needs to be the lightest color in the simulated wood. The darker glaze provides all the darkening and veining.
