Hmm .. I'm going to be the devils advocate here on this one:
Wouldn't putting a powder coating on be non original and therefore a no-no
for concours?
Not to mention a coucours judge might stick you for not having the "right"
white. (available in powdercoat?)
My Driver isn't the most beautiful thing in the world either .. but then the
powdercoat might stand up to daily abuse better.
So assuming it isn't a heck of a lot more expensive than a commercial paint
job . .. sounds like it might just be the ticket.

Were is Fred Thomas when you need him? ;)
Great idea, and for a concours would be the best way to go I imagine? More
work than needed for a driver though, at least my driver..,
Thanks,
