Re: faux-tina paint jobs
While not a truck this is a good example of fake patina...I posted it in a previous patina thread and I guess it's worth re-posting.

Re: faux-tina paint jobs
Hood and front fenders got a different primer on some of our trucks. But some also had black primer all over.
Check out this thread OEM Primer Thread |

Re: faux-tina paint jobs
Nice truck Kieth. Here's one my son and I are working on. He did not want to drive it with the paint like it was. It is shiney orange and white now. Lots of real patina pics in my sig.

The hood is a replacement later one without the Buck Rodgers intake scoops and it follows the black primer hood rule. |

I love these trucks! Patina whether it is from mother nature or done artistically looks sooo good!

Re: faux-tina paint jobs
When I found mine, I asked the same question. I was told by two different old timers that the cabs where put together and prepped at a different facility.

Re: faux-tina paint jobs
Thanks Malibob. I too dug the 45 year old patina finish. I found it sitting at an old ranch in Ca. I pulled off the body and set it aside while I gave the chassis and drive train a complete update. The truck may look like a beater but, it drives like a new car. Sean

Re: faux-tina paint jobs
Wow, that is one of the best looking knee knockers I've seen. Do you have a build thread on it? Is that a static drop? That looks awesome.

Re: faux-tina paint jobs
heres mine. Not faux-tina but the real deal. It sure looked good after buffing too. Now I AM going faux-tina because the truck got crashed and the likelihood of finding a complete palomino tan front clip in my price range (free...) is very unlikely.
So I think I'm gonna go light blue and white or light green and put the original wheels and caps back on.
