Another thing to be aware of is that all the plating that looked fine before will now look not so fine against the new paint, or maybe I should say that I've always had that problem. My first Roadrunner went from "just fixing the seats" to completely blown apart for restoration in about 2 weeks of that Snowball Effect. My buddies howl nowadays whenever I refer to a new purchase as "having nice patina"...and don't even ask about my plow truck...
