I remember a pretty nice silver/black 67, 435 coupe that we took the body off (did not touch the body, paint, glass, or interior) and fluffed the chassis to make it look "old". Someone who knew what they were looking at could tell it was not untouched, but most run of the mill car show people had no clue. This was back in the 1989-90 timeframe. At the time I was in awe how it turned out as 99% of the work being done then was overly perfect restorations.
