That truck is WAY too pretty to be considered a patina truck IMO! Those steelies are gonna look great on there. I'm taking mine to have them blasted tomorrow and I am going to paint mine white.

Re: Patina, shop logo'd, rusty trucks?
 

Patina is green....(copper that has turned green with age due to corrosion......)....like the Statue of Libery is Patina green....

Re: Patina, shop logo'd, rusty trucks?
 

I was told about guys from down south driving up to the midwest, buying our old salt rusted buckets for cheap, then filling and smoothing the bodies, spraying that acid junk on the fresh paint to make the appearance of "patina" and reselling them to unsuspecting patrons for much much more. When i bought my 72' it almost looked like someone had attempted to achieve a makeshift "patina" look. The paint had been rattle canned on and rattle can clear was flaking off all over the place. Unfortunately, they used black, so it just looked like a drunk guy painted it with his feet. I also found alot of putty smeared in the door corners at the bottoms.

Re: Patina, shop logo'd, rusty trucks?

Not shop truck or patina trucks, but these are some pretty cool looking rat rod style trucks.

Re: Patina, shop logo'd, rusty trucks?
 

You guys are gonna have to forgive me, because I know this its not a 67-72 or even a Chevy/GMC, but I love this old original Maytag Econoline truck!
