My budget would depend on what happens with the paint. I love the patina look awesome. I also like nice paint. But cost of painting is expensive. But rust o lum paint done right looks awesome as well. And certainly something i would do. As long as the drive train is 100%. Just enjoy the ride

The 'forward look' cars are crazy cool in my book. Personally I like to see all the money go to the engine, drivetrain and interior... I like a shiny paint job just like everyone, but I'm the first one to accidentally bump a door or knock something over in the garage. I've seen where people put a thin coat of paint matching the original color and then 'burn through' by sanding the new paint to get the right amount of patina. That's a lot of work but it does look nice.

I’m still torn between patina or paint…🤔 I like them both. This is a great candidate for the patina to stay. The car is becoming known for its character and how it looks now. But they do look great painted. 👍 My Dads 62 Lancer is gloss black and it looks sharp! And it definitely accentuates and shows off the body lines! And It’s not perfect or straight by any means. And it gets a ton of attention. I’m wanting to chop the top on my 62 Plymouth, Valiant and suicide the doors and put a 340/4-speed in it, etc. And then paint it a dark grey/blueish battleship color. Can’t loose whatever direction Vic chooses to go with it in the end! It’s still an attention getter…😎👊🏻
