Not sure what I'll do yet everyone tells me to leave the paint
Very confused! I like rat rod style but also like a nice painted one.

Whatever you decide to do , it looks like you have a bloody good blank canvas to work with !

Up to you, though if it was me I'd bring the old girl back to her former glory.

In other words, paint it

Yes, I would paint the panels that have grey missing.....

Can you please post up a pic of the ID tag, chassis number and engine No?

Thank you,

Steve

Hose on some 2K clear to preserve that finish.

Red motor,stick shift and dump it.
