I would keep it original as much as possible, including the paint. I'd keep it in the garage except for use in good clean weather.
No repaint unless it's in need of bodywork, in which case, it would receive a paintjob that would probably cost more than the car.
We have an auto museum in town, and if TSN weren't sufficiently helpful, I'd volunteer there to learn how to keep an original car looking great for decades.
If you want a nice classic to boost around town around in, I'd suggest shopping for a nicely cared for SPG or modifying a turbo.
