Re: PATINA Opinions
Ruining good surviving paint makes no sense to me.

It's not real patina if you make it. You could shoot it in three colors and sand through them too, but it wouldn't be legit. Right now, it's too legit, so quit. Looks good as it is.

Re: PATINA Opinions
Do you guys define this as patina or just rust ? Pickup sat untouched for over twenty years.
 sorry for sideways photo, can't seem to turn it properly?

Re: PATINA Opinions
All I know is the last time I had "Olivia" at a gathering of collector cars and trucks she got a lot more attention then most restored pickups ! Partly because a lot of people remember her delivering furniture to their homes years ago. But just as meny enjoyed that it was mostly original and unmolested.
