Doing your own fake patina at home is one thing Paying the "patina king" 10K to paint fake rust on your truck is totally another thing.

Some guy with a 70 something beater sedan sanded most of the paint off and let it sit and rust and proudly shows up with his "patina" car at local shows. It looks like what gets tagged as an abandoned vehicle here in town.

I full and well understand the concept of taking a truck that has what most guys call great patina and building a decent chassis for it and installing a great engine and drivetrain combo and even upgrading the interior while leaving the exterior alone. That might put a truck on the road two or three years earlier than putting the time and finding the money for the body and paint.

I'm at that point of decision right now. Do I continue with my plan for a chopped stretched and sectioned cab on the long bed frame or do I take my cab off the frame and use another cab to do a far simpler build to make a mid July deadline for a show that I have already paid my entry fee and reserved my room for.
