picked up 67 SWB... Is this what they call patina? - Page 2 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

We have to put a tracking collar on this guy......two scores in a month? I would kill for an un-molested truck......congrats! That said, consider leaving the first one all original & just get it running & driveable. More people will gawk at it than if it it painted & polished. The Sheriff here has a 50 Ford with a (confiscated) whiskey still bolted down in the bed. The truck is about 8 different colors & one of them is rust. It has already won some trophys at the local car shows.

I will take a shot at answering this. Patina is the term used to describe the new fad and look of cars with original paint that is worn and weathered and has primer and or surface rust showing through. Something like that. Someone who really knows will chime in.

It would be cool to make them two tones and one of them be like silver on top and black on bottom and the othe black on top and silver on bottom or any ofter color
