The rust on the top of your radiator plate, Your fender support bars and the wear on the lid of your air cleaner were all caused by contact with the underhood insulator material. After I restored mine I immediatly noticed scuff damage (even when I trailered the car) with the hood down.

The solution was a layer of 6ml Polyurathane sheeting during transport.

If I was going to drive the car, and I wanted to preserve the restoration the best I could I guess I would have to remove the insulator. It is 100% correct in thickness and just as abrasive as the original.
