woodgraining is not for everyone but everyone could do it to some level..there are a ton of resources on the subject on the internet..kits are available and guildelines to get you on the way..I would suggest reading, buy couple graining tool..a couple styles, though not the highest quality from Michaels etc...is cheap enough to play with and see if you have the knack per say...spray a panel with base paint and start practicing your technique..this should not prevent you from buying the car if you like it..the area is not that large from the quick pics I looked up online

Rustygrain: Here are some pictures of my woodgraining using the grain-it kit.

This is on a 39 Desoto using curly maple graining. You can call me for more information. I will be going to Hershey on Thursday and Friday
