Hmmm , You must be like me got money coming out your ears.

LOL.. Yeah !

Just one piece @ the time...

Man I dig it , hope you don't me copy-ing yours ,me and my nephew are doing a 66 sea blue I think .Can't really explain it but every time I'm at a show always drawn to these cars I just love the look! Now let me see you do buff work before clear never knew thats how you acheive the worn effect better. that hood is lookin just right good job dude!!

Thanks.. yeah i tried sanding.... But a wool pad and old cutting compound seems to give the look better... then Rubber seal has a nice Flat clear...

Funny ...... My car looks like this and all I get is Shit for it , You guys go out and build one to look Patinad and its the coolest thing going ......

If you want a little surface rust on the bare metal spots , hit it with a little muratic acid .

yup or bleach... and you can wash it off eas yfor clearing.

Its alot of fun....Plus you know it's all new... This dash matches the outside this way.

What kind of headliner you putting in it? ......

well i want a mohair... but prolly not going to happen....cause its going to be a driver

The darker mohair might be cool , not to show spots its like a saddle color.. the light in my 59 was hard to keep clean .

I thought the bus was a project!

Man that makes me dizzy !! has the VIN number been removed.

The VIN was removed last night...

Awesome job on patina look. Moe's gonna rock !

Thanks BB
