Watched a Gas Monkey show today and they cleared over the factory paint on a 36? or 38? Ford.. They left the rust spots and treated the rust I guess with something and just cleared over it leaving the patina in place...
That got me thinking that if it's possible this car might be cool to do like that. Fix the floor pans and window channel and then fix the quarter panels where needed and the then just clear it..
I think it'd be a real sin to remove the factory paint... Hmmm....
Where the quarters go it'd need some filler perhaps and then make it flash rust enough to blend, and perhaps even work on a mix that matches the patina.... so even the patch would look "aged"...
Might be a cool path for this car.... The look of the Ford was sweet. Although any body person would be driven nuts to actually make something look old and weathered.. LOL.
I like it!
Of course I'd bring interior to concourse level or so, and the mechanicals would be A+....
