Love it! Real is REAL. History and wear showing honest use and love is cool. Never fails for me, whenever I go to a show I'll walk right by anything with perfect paint. I either want to see the work of builder, as in, I want to see the work in progress or on-going, OR I want to see the original car with all it's time of use showing.
If neither of those is an option, I'll always look at a primered vehicle. I love primer, and have painted a car then realized it didn't appeal to me as much as when it was in primer. And have always had the experience of people approaching and appreciating vehicles in primer, after painting they might make a passing comment on how it lgood it looks, but it doesn't draw people in the same. Not that it's about showing it off, just an example of the difference.
Charliec, I'd vote for primer.
