Now I'll drive it like I stole it, but I want that $$$$$$ paint job to last, so no runs to the dump or moving refrigerators.

But, I understand the idea of using it, everybody has to make their own choice about it.

I built the Red/White '71 4x4 that way and Gary, the guy that helped me paint it complained because I was getting too many rock chips in the paint. I drove it everywhere. I drove it 500 miles 'round trip to Kansas City to the All Truck Nationals, won third place in my class and sold it. I had it less than two months after I finished it. It was way too nice for me to own...

I have all of my oldies insured through my regular insurance company, American Family Insurance.
