    Nice '41. I like wide whites. Not so crazy about flat paint.

    I'd run it as is till I could afford to do something nicer. If it's straight it would be cool to have a shiny paint job. The car looks good from here- I'd like to see some more pics.

    I'd try to match that shiny paint and redo it - it's a nice, mellow, tasteful metallic that really suits such a stately ride. Flat green?! Black?! Stand out from the crowd with style, don't blend in with ho-hum. Nice ride.

    I agree with Gig, match and re-paint.

    but I'd shoot for some whitewalls.
