@Van_Damage
come on, I want your honest opinions here.
It's a Dawes Star Celeste, probably the other side of 30 years old. Contrary to appearances, no serious rust damage. I was thinking of spraying it (in fact i was just about to pop over to armourtec) and getting it all pimped up as a fixed, but have since had several people telling me i should leave it like it is... not sure about the exact reasons. I'm now completely torn. What should I do??
