Old truck patina - can it be clear coated?

I like that color. I think if you treated it well enough to get whatever is loose off and stabilize the rest you could. I think that's what they do to a rat rod.

Im leaning that way now. It's an older Corvette color called Atomic Orange. Its growing on me.
 
I like the color

Prev owner started restoring it and then lost interest. He redid the interior also - I do like it a lot.

A friend of mine did some kinda acid wash before clear coating. I don't remember the details except that it wasn't a huge deal. not much help. I'm thinking about doing an old truck like that , it's got a good bit more surface rust.
