Thats a cool perspective. I've got a car with really nice paint that I finished right when my oldest was born. Now I have 2 kids and I'm always stressed about it getting dented/scratched. Just picked up a 66 C10 and for those reasons I think I will enjoy it more with something like this. I want to not be afraid to drive it/park it anywhere.
Thank you so much im thinking on buying a 1952 chevy pickup but wanted it with patina and couldnt find someone that did the paint right and found you thanks love the work.
Looks awesome it's really convincing, one of the best faux patina jobs I've seen and I'm one of the biggest patina advocates you'll ever meet. I'm into auto paint too, its nice to see patina and faux patina become more accepted. Almost everyone in my auto class thought I was crazy for liking patina but I think it's history not a fad like many say it is.
I always see people do frame alterations like this and it obviously works for the limited use many of these vehicle see, but as I was taught in school for Welding and Fabrication, when making a repair on a frame rail, be it on a vehicle or trailer, you should always weld a diamond shaped patch over the top of the splice to strengthen the frame lengthwise. Without that, the weld is far more likely to crack.
Incredible job, looks so authentic! Especially like the lettering treatment! I would have mocked up original rear wheel tubs in the back though. Awesome Ride!
Find something you can do some testing on an old hood or car door. Paint it the sealer/primer color then white then get some more spray paint colors you like. Do some layers and let them dry then sand through see what works. there should be a primer or sealer color under the white start there. A mix of browns and red oxy create the rusty look dark grey or black for the metal non rusted look. Have fun we sure did. Cars are the best canvas for an artist no matter what kind of paint job you like!
I guess I got the old school mentality of restoring a car which is bring it back to what it looked like when it rolled off the lot and maybe just maybe add something that would have made a great factory option. The ice chests look pretty cool. Thinking about that... Anyone ever tried making a smugglers truck with tanks for running moon shine under the bed and in the wheel wells? That would be cool to see at a car show!!!
Kinda funny how all the haters can't even be honest and acknowledge that even if they don't like the truck they have to respect the ability of the painter, or as I prefer to call them The Artists.
Nice truck. I'm building a '65, & it's turning out O.K. (not as nice as this 1 though). I wish I had the skills to do a "patina" paint job on it. NICE JOB MAN!
Oh man you're killing me!! I have a 66 C10 long box in Glenwood Green that pretty much was a twin of yours after the mind blowing paint job you achieved. I loved it just the way it was until some dip shit mail man took me out and forced me to restore it. Granted i'm stoked to have it all shiny and awesome, but I can never get that old unmolested survivor look back.
Fuck! 8 years later and I’m just now thinking of doing it to mine now that the paint is scraped and scratched here n there. I consider myself artist, so I believe I can achieve it without totally sanding off the current paint. (Hopefully). Looks so cool and I can really spend more on upgrading other hard parts.
Any additional videos that would help other that want to achieve this. Ones that maybe explain a bit more for those who have limited experience. Thanks
Please please help me out! I am working on a big project at the moment...the car is a white 1972 Mercedes Benz W115 200D /8. however the paint is near enough perfect but i want to give it this same patina look that u did...what are the best ways of doing it? Awesome truck by the way love how it looks!!
I hate to ask you this... but how much did you put in it not including the price you bought it for? i have wanted to do this for years and im tired of waiting just want to know what to expect. thanks.
15 x 8 steelies with 225/70/15 5/8" whites. I wanted them to look like 20's from far away. I thought putting modern wheels would ruin the look and I don't like chrome or billet.
I love these old silent movies, they really take me back...... lmao. Truck looks awesome..!!!
Awesome, im a painter who loves to achieve that perfection glass resto job, but rather have this on my personal truck!!!! Great job

Well Done!
I really need to do this to my 63 bug...
Hi, what you done here .looks great, i am after some tips on how to get a old look with the paint for a old Lambretta, Any help ?
I am lucky that my truck has natural patina. Wouldn't trade it for anything! Just have to save up to get an LS swap and static drop it.
nice job
Nice!
super awesome
what teal/turquoise color did you use? tia
BADASS!!!
Hi men ! nice work, one question: after the paint of the final color how much time do you wait to start removing the color? thanks.
give me that black n white n grey @ the start any day for me ;)
What was the final color?
My dream truck am going buy my truck in juaritos mexico with chihuahua plates n make it the same as this one ☝️for dirt cheap
I would like to know if I can get the patina look with different colors for my 50 chevy pickup truck
Wow amazing looks so real
Sweet!!!!!!!!
You mentioned how much clearer you used how much of the Dupli-Color paint was used
its called rat rod patina! the new look everyone is striving to go with these days..
Any additional videos that would help other that want to achieve this. Ones that maybe explain a bit more for those who have limited experience. Thanks
One bad ass ride, what sizeare those rims... Love how they pop out like that!
Fukin Badass Trokita!!!
If you don't mind me asking, how much was the air ride kit?
I do see your point. But also look at it this way. People won't park near it. And you prob won't have to worry about it being stolen.
That truck is just bad awesome. I hate that truck so much I've gotta have it.
hey man that's awesome what is the blue paint that you used before wet sanding the truck
Please please help me out! I am working on a big project at the moment...the car is a white 1972 Mercedes Benz W115 200D /8. however the paint is near enough perfect but i want to give it this same patina look that u did...what are the best ways of doing it? Awesome truck by the way love how it looks!!
You like to change things as you go along.
Dope!!
What was used to scuff the final paint after layered on top of red oxy and gold? Brill pad or 400g paper?
Did you use a scotch brite and water Or like wax n grease remover to sand the paint?
Did you used paint thinner to get the blue color off? And the blue color, was it dry a few hours or on fresh paint?

I hate to ask you this... but how much did you put in it not including the price you bought it for? i have wanted to do this for years and im tired of waiting just want to know what to expect. thanks.
Most people won't answer that. Its more like it doesn't matter. Just do it. It's more of just have fun with...
it usually takes more time to do this type of paint, than actually doing a show quality paint job.
Was that a wet or dry sand at the end for the patina look?
muito topppppp
niiiceee...!
15 x 8 steelies with 225/70/15 5/8" whites. I wanted them to look like 20's from far away. I thought putting modern wheels would ruin the look and I don't like chrome or billet.
