BK '55 Plymouth Wagon
Just curious...which tutone is correct.
A. With the window pillars painted the same as the body?
B. With the window pillars painted the same as the roof?

I just checked some '55 Plymouth station wagon ads, and they show the top and window pillars in one color. However, I did find one with the window pillars alone in a second color. Maybe it depended upon who was in the paint booth?

Ok thanks
The bottom one was detailed and painted by John White...don't know who did the top one.
