Default Re: So, my '36 sedan delivery: restore or leave the patina POLL

Things usually look better in pictures. You would know better than us...who haven't seen it up close. The current "patina" craze, is kinda mind boggling.

Who wouldn't want a nice straight original vehicle, but looking around Al's web we see the dealers want 25k for a 10k 60's pickup because it has surface rust on the hood.

In this case, that thing really looks good. I'm sure you will find some areas that don't qualify to you standards, but there are methods to match the patina for a few areas.

Imagine that, a guy with life long history of painting 100 point cars...needs to learn how to paint again!

GB knows the tricks. Whats the back story, that thing surely lived inside all its life
