Re: Maybe I Bit Off More Than I Can Chew

Congrats!!!
Glad you are able to get some of the important work started!!!
Concerning the patina. If you don't paint it...I've seen a few vehicles like yours where they have sprayed clear over the rust...I don't favor doing that. I would use a CLR bath, then scotchbrite, THEN some kind of wax to preserve the metal...looks best to me...just my thoughts...

As a child we had a similar pickup, bought it from my grandpa before he passed away, ours may have been older. It was white. served it's purpose for us for a while. Brings a good memory to me!!!
Thanks for sharing!!!
