Car appreciation... the aesthetics, the engineering, etc

My votes in order:

1. Hammerite all over with a stripped bare bonnet and a sponsor stack(?) under the right wing mirror.
   
2. DIY Harley-style engine wrinkle paint all over.
   
3. Touch up rust, rust prone areas to a functional standard, and drive it. There is no point in spending more than the bare minimum on this car's bodywork.
