Under your logo, you should put the slogan "You can't beat our meat". It sounds like something innocent they would have said back in the day when your truck was new, but it has a funny meaning now lol

Funny you bring that up. I was going to surprise you all with that.
"You may beat our prices....but you will never beat our meats!"

Thanks, I had vinyl stencils made. Then painted them with a brush. Then wet sanded with 400. It cut fast so I had to be careful with the sanding. I just used rustoleum paint from the local paint store.

Bruceman, your truck looks great. I tried clicking on the thread in your sig, but I think it links to the wrong thread.

For those of you trying to create a patina look, I took some close up high res shots of genuine patina, that might help you to recreate the look. You can view them here
