- Overhaulin' Project: Monogram 1939 Chevy Coupe. Opinions requested.
- I think the color would go better on a classic street rod build, but I'm not really sold on those hood cutouts on a street rod. The '39 panel truck has a stock hood to swap in, but of course the paint wouldn't match. *NM*
- Some graphics would certainly brighten things up. *NM*
- I like Gasser choice with some cheater slicks and some graphics! *NM*
- Option C: Leave it alone, save it, it's part of your history to remember- build another, any way you like. *NM*
- Re: Overhaulin' I like option "C" too... *NM*
- I agree, leave it alone, those kits aren't that hard to find, if you want a different version, do it with a second kit. *NM*
- I think it looks great as it is! Get another kit and build it like you want. *NM*
- Ok, thanks for the responses, it sounds like a lot of people think I should leave it alone, so I think maybe I will clean and polish it. I may switch out the wheels though.....
- Yeah, I'd swap out the wheels too. IMO the main interesting history is the paint job; the rest is mostly box stock rather than your personal touch, so I don't think you lose anything by changing it. *NM*
- I say leave it alone also. Looks great as is but like you said polish the paint a bit. Build another one like you would to change this one too. *NM*
