Vintage looking paint question

[CraigS]

Are there any semi-gloss clears available? Also using a solid color w/o a clear would be more correct. I am not even sure that colors like silver had a second coat of clear. I think even they were single stage. Da bat??? I do remember thta my brother painted his MGA in a metallic green that was similar to our eyes to BRG. It had an extremely fine metallic, and not a lot of it, and there was definitely no clear coat.
