Has the "patina" trend caught on here yet?

If the mechanicals are in good shape,smoking deal. As for the state of "patina", it depends on the situation. A old unrestored rod/ dragster/ Kustom in original shape, hell yes. Going out of the way to do fake...Well ,it's fake.... Just my opinion. If you do bodywork to make something straight, put good paint/primer on it. Good topic,though.

The mechanicals on this thing are sweet! Inboard spring kit with super stock springs, 3:73 in the Dana, hadn't been started in almost a year, pumped it a few times, started right up! Brand new exhaust, frame connectors, cop car rims and dogdish caps, manual steering and brakes...total sleeper! Everything works on it too, except the wiper motor linkage was unhooked!! Sweet little ride! With a bath, this car would look like Aunt Sandys church ride for tomorrow's mass!! Owned by a longtime Mopar guy, got another one just like it... 4 speed car!
