The problem with the paint was universal with all American Cars built in the
80's. I think it had to so with a reformulated paint with the ClearCoat.
The problem was bad enough that all manu.'s offered an undisclosed 5 yr
warranty on the paint. I had both of my cars repainted for free when they
started to flake after 3 - 4 yrs.

Get with the times dude. :)

They solved that problem years ago.
