To paint or not to paint?

Drive it, you can always polish it later.

I bought an old corvette about 6 months ago just to have a old car to drive around.
It has 20 year old paint, still shiny but scratches, I don't care the car is fun to drive.

I have the Duster tore apart and it has not moved in 1.5 years.
I tend to work on it in the winter months when it is cold out.
