I'd paint it. I like the "rat rod" look but not on a Stangs, especially a Shelby.

Just couldn't leave it like that myself.....It would be like having a candy bar and not being able to open it......Just couldn't do it

If the paint was ok, and body was good, then I would leave it alone, and do what I could with it, using compound, polish and wax.
