I agree.

Just a little brown here & there for some faux rust (or black for that 'worn to the OE primer' look) & then scotch brite it for some consistency. You could always do the same kind of quickie job on the front half to get everything alot closer. Just plot out where the current 'rust' is, paint it, apply some faux rust, & drive down the road knowing your neighbors are coveting more than your 'original 77 model'.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
