A very nice patina on that '55 indeed! I think the contrast of the work you have done underneath to get her working sound mechanically and the wabi-sabi: "time earned beauty" finish of the body would be sweet. That was and is my vision for my '52; get it running great and enjoy. Worry free fun.

What I did with the exterior of my car was sand the rough patches and buff in oil. I tried the tire wet kind, and it looked pretty good for a while. I'd like to try an owatrol product or comparable compound but, they are fairly expensive. P.S. Hans's car is amazing.
