Just picked up my 1st Bronco. I believe it has the original Sequoia Brown metallic paint intact, but not sure. Any thoughts and advice on whether it's better to keep the original patina or new paint?

Love the color! Really depends on you as far as restoration or keeping the patina. Some will say keep it original but do what you can to make sure any rust or corrosion doesn't progress. I personally would do a full restoration but just my $0.02
