To powder or not to powder?

[70c10-08]

To powder coat or not to powder coat? That is the question. I work at a powder coating facility and, get paid to powder my own stuff. Should I powder coat my frame and assorted Hardware? Or should I just paint them instead? Is there any advantages besides getting paid to work on my own stuff? Is there any part of my truck that I should have powder coated over getting it painted? I'm wanting my whole truck to eventually look exactly like it did when she left Janesville, Wisconsin in December of 1969 bound for Hastings, Nebraska.
