Hi All, I'm looking at a early 80's P car with badly scuffed / scratched clear coat. The car was kept in a barn with a tarp on it for years, hence the scuffing. What, if any options are available to try and bring the clear back vs a re-spray?

Thanks for the replies. This is a low mileage car and part or most of the potential value might be originality. How much does a partial repaint of the clear or clear and base in certain panels vs a complete "top side" (rubber in but gapped, no jambs, etc.) paint job devalue a car vs all original and color corrected paint? Also, any recommendations in Knoxville area that could do one or more of these tasks? I had a really good detail guy / painter in St. Pete and would like to find a similar shop in Knox.
