mocked up my body panels this weekend

And by that I mean I stacked them all together in my driveway in the shape of a truck to see how many matching ones I have. I think i like the patina I have with these ones and the rust matches the reddish cab well enough. So my plan has changed from sand blasting and painting to rocking the battle scars.

That doesn't have near enough moss growing on it to be a true WA patina!
