Once you upgrade something like paint you might as well redo the entire car.
I think these guys keep their hobby somewhat "cheap" by leaving the cars like that. They still get to have hot rods but it doesn't cost them $100,000
If I stuck a loud exhaust on my Dad's or Sister's XJ's and/or did someuing to make our long dead FS van run again, would those be allowed? They're nearly as patinaed and it's all well earned too!
