Well, then that makes it cheap and easy to replicate the paint job. All you need is some aerosol cans and a brush !!!

The car is rough as a corn cob, but its got patina and history thus $$$$$.
Technically paint was not going tpo make it faster and the QA in the paint booth I think was the part time surfer, smoking and sanding with a buddy following with paint. LOL
