I only had to run a spacer with these because the center bore on the wheel was smaller than the hubs on the truck. Plus the spacers allowed me to get the exact backspacing I wanted also.

The patina is real on the cab and most of the bed. It was a longbed so I shortened the frame and the bed and then kinda faked the patina on the bed where it was cut and welded.

It has evolved. Its hard to tell in person from more than a few feet away except that I didn't grind the welds inside the bed and there is no filler on the bedsides at all so if you look close you can see the weld seams where I ground them down and the small amount of shrinkage from the welding. I didn't do any finish work at all besides grinding the outside welds smooth.

I found spray paint that was very close in color and fogged the entire bedsides and then fogged gray primer over that and let it dry then used a fine Scotch brite pad to scuff the entire bedside.

I used the same method on the bed strips when I installed the new wood. They were black.

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! |
