Clear coated Rat Rod pictures

[1952ssr]

I will admit I was not a fan of clear coating most rat rods. To me it just took the authenticity out of the truck. Yet here lately I have been pondering the thought of clearing mine since it is red and started to kinda fade into a pink. I watch Vegas Rat rods and they clear about everything and have seen some nice cleared trucks for sale on dirty birds website.
Can you guys that have cleared your ride post a picture and comment(s) to help me make a decision. Thanks in advance
