I'd go with the "old" look. Problem is, around where I live I couldn't find
anyone who would do it. It has a '71 re-spray over the '67 factory.
Last quote I got on this no rust, straight, no bondo car to pull the engine
and paint everything was $22,000. I like the "patina" even more now.

--------------------------------------
I've been restoring my BN2 and attempting to preserve as many of the
original parts as possible.  My idea is that it's an old car and I'd like it
to look that way (Patina).  I'm now getting ready to have it painted and am
considering the options: 1) modern two stage paint with a clear coat or 2) a
more period correct one stage acrylic.  Any comments or suggestions?
