Patina vs New Paint which increases value? #958184 07/22/2013 3:30 PM

Big Pink New Guy B Joined: Jul 2013 Posts: 30 Washington	I have a 1947 1 1/2 ton Loadmaster with great two toned patina and I'm wrestling with the idea to paint it. I'm not into it very much so a quickie white spray is not out of the question inside and out. This truck has no rust and runs and drives but was bought to flip so does repainting a truck with no rust decrease the value over two tone patina???
