Yes the top two are all original paint, with minor touch ups some time in history.

Re: Post you patina trucks!!!!!! Real or fake post your weathered beauties!
My 68 when I got it around 2004, 6 cyl 3 on tree, put power steering pump in and drove it, and it's been parked since around 2010, the patina keeps spreading. A gear head buddy in Enterprise Alabama had been trying to buy it forever, somehow I got lucky when I asked the PO if he wanted to sell it. If I sell my 56 Bel Air it's going back to daily driver duty.
Patina!? Hell boy, that thars rust!

Re: Post you patina trucks!!!!!! Real or fake post your weathered beauties!
Picked this one up on eBay the other day, I'm sure some here saw it. Runs nice but needs to be gone through completely. Not uber rusty, apparently it came from North Carolina. Will post more pics as I dig into it next summer. Ironic that I just sold my 71 long bed and vowed I wasn't going to buy anything else for a while! If you have any parts for the 50th edition let me know!). Regards and Merry Xmas, Dave.

Re: Post you patina trucks!!!!!! Real or fake post your weathered beauties!
Lol, alas it's tucked away in a Wisconsin barn for the winter--if it starts yelling to go home next spring I might consider its demands!

Beautiful !!! You got yourself a VERY rare truck. Id clean out every truck I have to have gotten it. This would have been "the" build! I was "watching" this one and trying to get my neighbor to buy my 72 (he's been gaga over it since I got it) so I could get it but didn't happen in time. You paid good $$ for it and hope its a solid as hopped. Please keep it original.

Re: Post you patina trucks!!!!!! Real or fake post your weathered beauties!
Thanks guys, for now it's just in storage for the winter and won't be doing much work on it. Will keep it original though. It's got the usual rust under the battery, the bed is solid but one of the fender liners (the part inside the bed) is a little lacey on one flange, rockers will need some attention and a little at the cab corners--overall much better than my 71 was though so I'm pleased. Yep, paid good $ for it but the interesting stuff just seems to be going up in price regardless. I'll definitely be looking for parts for it....
