Thanks for the ID. I reckon it is gloss paint, as it was a vehicle built for domestic use (i.e. in Canada).

For domestic use LHD was specified as at home Canada drove on the right. Ford and GM Canada built both LHD for domestic and RHD for export. The latter was the largest part of production, especially during WW2.
