Default Re: A few 1929 CCPU questions

I love these old cars trucks with vintage patina, especially trucks. I agree with Purdy. Leave it as is. I had a 29 coupe once that had great patina; I went all through the mechanics and put new upholstery in it, but otherwise left the exterior looking old. You can't duplicate that look. I saw the car later and the new owner had done a body, fender and paint job on it. It looked just like every other restored 29 coupe. Ah well, his car, his choice.
