All,
My '56 TR-3 is in need of a respray. It was last done in 1991 with RM Diamond paint system. Although not original type paint, I was very pleased with the looks of the finished product. I took the car to a shop last week and they recommended a base coat clear coat system. Said it would look much better and will hold up better. I have mixed feelings about a new paint system on a 56 year old car. I've kept most everything original but it will never be a concours car. Any experience or views on the subject? I haven't seen a TR with a new clear coat system on it.
TIA
Pete
