• 80's was paint and modify some... stripes, wheels.... hot rod... ya know...
• by the late 90's the original look was in........ because so many had been "hot rodded"
• The last 12 years, patina is hot !!!! I just went to a huge Torque Fest, and I tell you there were 20-40k dollar cars that had been professionally repainted to look like "patina"..... What you think is "rust" is professional brown, black, and primer paint. I personally been into "patina" for a long time... (not lowered rat rods mind you, but true patina)
