Lastly my 1991 short bed. All have original patina. I love that look and don't ever have to worry about rain or someone touching them. I have 3 show vehicles and the last four I have built or bought are full patina versions.

Darn near perfect right there Automoto.

automoto · 02-01-2017, 10:33 AM

thanks chizzler! Had to fix a coolant leak at the water neck 2 days ago, but was able to go out for a short ride after. Hopefully soon i'll be doing a rear axle swap to 5 lug to match the front, new rear gears, POL trailing arm cross member and some motor work. It has a GM 350 crate motor and a 700R4 trans now, but has highway gears in the rear. Its fun to cruise around in, but lacks the power and rumble i miss. Some good looking trucks on here, any one on here from NJ?

@chuckmc8 LOVE your truck, that is my favorite body style.

Apologize if this has been discussed already in this post. However, does anyone have any tips on how one would preserve the real patina on a truck? I.e..truck is lightly rusted, what can be used to preserve that look and prevent further rust?

You can clear coat it either flat, satin or gloss. Nothing will prevent further rust other than removing the rust and sealing it. Rust is a cancer.
Even then it only slows rust - the steel wants to go home to mommy. It just does it in a time frame humans can't see.

But, if you like patina (rust), there isn't a real concern of our trucks rusting away in our lifetime as long as it isn't parked out in a field.

Anybody?

Oh, and the hood is awesome. Nothing ugly about it ha!

Absolutely Awesome Truck!
Beautiful Genuine Patina!
I personally wouldn't mess with it.

I'm not sure if he's trying to do Fauxtina, but either way, I think it looks really cool!

**LostMy65** · 04-26-2017, 08:27 PM

I changed the wheels to blue.

Here is my first ever attempt at patina. I think it turned out pretty good. Love how the hood turned out.

I like it.
I think the way you did just a very discreet sand-through helps with making it look close to real.

I like it too. Is that the original paint or did you just use old school colors? I really dig those 60-61 hoods.

All Krylon rattle can. I first painted the truck 3 shades of red and brown. Then covered the truck with Krylon Sea Glass. Only took 7 cans. Then started sanding. Got the out effect on the hood by painting over rock salt sprinkled over the "rust" layer. I may have 50 bucks in the entire paint job.

I'd say that was a well spent 50$! Nice job!

I always wondered how it would work to use a sand blaster from a distance. Or to drag the panels across some sand.

RANDY COX · 05-24-2017, 07:28 PM

Here's mine fake...patina..with fleetside bed...

I may have commented on this one before, but I believe the subtleness is the trick.

I really like this one.
