Thank you; that's where we've been at for the last 50 years.
The vertical surfaces look pretty good. There's a steady degradation of the horizontal surfaces (hood and decklid).
The paint was never very good even when new. There are hand prints in the hood, hairs in the quarters and a large "swiped" area on the deck lid, like some one wiped away solvent or fluid and sprayed right over the top of it.
All still very visible to this day.
