no i never asked for a resume.. just stated that i would much rather have a nice natural patina then a shitty paint job. i have sprayed engine bays and parts of cars and even a brand x or two over the years and they turned out pretty damn decent... staying with non metal flake colors are boring to me..
as far as my 65 goes, it has much more character looking the way it does.. i don't ever see me painting it or having it painted... it looks good as a nice old used truck that i can take and park anywhere, load the back with a motor or firewood and not worry about it.. that truck gets so much attention looking the way it does that it amazes me..
Manufactured patina no. Original patina yes, clearcoated original patina no
