Do you like your finish in mat black?

Well, if you never bother washing it, who'd know?! Not for me, thanks.

I think it looks awesome, love the look, only thing is a '54 is a little too pretty to be a rat rod.

My '55 is going to look very similar, just with shiny paint and red upholstery. If I look at that long enough it might convince me to paint my wheels to match.

heck, I don't even have hubcaps right now.... and the way the money is flying out of my wallet for this motor swap deal, a can of spray paint is about my cosmetic modification budget :)

I personally find matte black paint, with red wheels/smoothies (or chrome center cap with beauty ring)/wide whites, and some tasteful, minimalist red-and-white pinstriping here and there to be very attractive.

Which is perfectly alright; think how many black bodies and red wheels were painted with rattle cans back in the day! ;)
