I don't agree , base/coat clear coat just makes it another incorrect, overrestored, blend into the scenery, boring because it looks like the rest of them , trailer poodle.

The last year I judged at etown I actually subtracted points from the incorect overrestored trailer poodles.

just to show I'm not biased... here's a neat mostly original paint 68 ragtop, we actually had to get sloppy to make a few blow-in's look as correct as possible...
