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 &quot;swiped&quot; 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.
