Do what you like. Photograph what you enjoy. There is plenty of ideas and tastes in this hobby that everyone can get a little visual dessert. Isn't this country great?

I drove around in rattle can painted cars until 2002, didnt bother fixing rust until 2006. Now the rage is no paint and junk like I drove for a couple decades. The way I see it is HRM and the rest are behind me, so that means I am leading the pack.
Why not low buck DIY paint that isnt flat black instead of patina?

after last months hot rod (i got the new one today) there were 3 cars featured in bare metal, so dont worry, that'll be the new trend and we wont have to see anymore flat black or pantina'd rides

Lots of my junk, back in the day, all had bad paint jobs.
Today I can afford a good paint job......so I paint 'em.

the sun cycle defends paint..regardless of cool factor, they will get bothered by the storms.
if I can keep a tin can painted, the old 16 gauge should be beautiful easily. I agree about paint.
at least fake with a clear coat over the patina look...dual purpose. old look, new paint.

Sorry , don't agree so much
Body work / prep / paint / re-do trim ..etc ... is X-pensive , Body shop prison can easy last (???) < ??
Paint that shines is AWESOME but, it brings along with it another huge set of issues (set backs)
I am cool with a project done well, nice fab work and lousy paint ..and or "patina"
real or fake, its art (IMHO)

"Patina" or "Paint that sh*t"
can somebody shoot me? Please god, no more patina. Please paint it. Rust sucks.
*if your junk has paint, but the paint aint great, but it's not just an open rust sore, I'm okay. I'm talking tetinus "patina"...Last edited by Beagle; February 7, 2013, 07:03 PM.Tags: None
