You just gave me an idea. Actually, an idea I had a while ago but had forgotten. I could clean up and shine one half, but leave the other half the way it is (with protection, of course). I'd even go so far as to carry the theme to the inside, maybe even the engine, frame and wheels.
The real trick would be to park in such a way that people would see the old side, but when they circled back they'd see the shiny side. Or pass someone turning from a side road, then when they go to pass, confuse the crap out of them.
Guess it would be like the scene in "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" near the end in Wonka's office, where everything is in half.
