Heres one I saw at the weekend at a show, its a 63 but was very nicely done, still had farm supply company stickers etc in the back window and on the tailgate but was slammed on 20's (didn't know they made six stud torque thrusts) with a very nice side exit exhaust in stainless, never did manage to catch the owner there but I ssupect under the hood its very very clean and shiny. The license plate reads "Rough as Toast" The patina look seems to be just as big over here, there were several trucks there with fake patina with paint rubbed through to the primer, looked very hokey tbh.

That's kinda crazy. How the heck did the oxydation just get on the passenger side of the hood?

Blitz · 07-06-2009, 03:30 PM

Too funny.

It appears to me the drivers side of the hood and the roof are primered. There is some surface rust on the drivers side hood near the Chevrolet letters.

BAGNDRAGIT · 07-07-2009, 01:08 AM

a few ive seen

and mine so far

and one for good measure

lukbrw · 07-07-2009, 09:26 AM

Here's are latest purchase. Not sure how long we'll be keeping the patina look since any rust will just get worse here in the north. But we'll enjoy it for the rest of the summer!

lukbrw · 07-07-2009, 09:28 AM

Couple more....

Just pulled this one out of my wife's grandfathers chicken house...84000 miles...IT is on propane so I added a battery and it fired right up after sitting for 7 years

Kinghat · 07-21-2009, 09:04 AM

I just sold this truck to my best friend, and he had his business lettered on the side. I miss that truck!

Lippyp · 07-21-2009, 09:59 AM

Would you go to a body shop where the owner drove a rusty truck? LOL
