So a friend has a mid 1970's Cadillac, which for some reason he is thinking of restoring, and he asked an interesting question:

This car, at the the time supposedly at the pinnacle of American automotive manufacturing, came from the factory with poorly fitting panels and runs in the paint. If restored to original condition, should that include paint runs and gaps between panels the size of a child's thumb?

First thought is "no" but then again if that is original condition, then for an accurate restoration the answer might be "yes".

Anyways a good tongue-in-cheek question!
