Re: real patina..

Long beds are all good, the only ugly trucks are stepside (my opinion)

Re: real patina..

Cool history on that truck. Too bad there is so much pin hole rust all over it.

Re: real patina..

Not a 69 front end, for sure. But, it would make a nice truck to fix up and keep original sign paintings.

Re: real patina..

That is a cool truck with a lot of cool history. I know I'm probably overly skeptical, but something about the patina has me puzzled. I know that different surfaces patina in different ways depending on conditions - but the way that everything inside the bed looks totally different than the outside looks strange to me. It gives the impression that something has been sprayed on the truck to give it the even rusty look. It looks like maybe it had a camper shell on it, but if that was the case the back of the cab would look different. Anyway, cool truck - but I'd want to see it before I went crazy bidding.

Re: real patina..

As a guy who lives in the Nashville area, that would be a cool truck to own. Not a racing fan at all, but there's been a lot of fighting locally the last few years on what to do with the race track at the fairgrounds. It would definitely be a cool truck to own around here.

Re: real patina..

With all that rust it makes it easier to cut that down to a SWB.
