like i said... just my opinion.

its every bit as hard to get fauxtina right as it is to do a paint job.

I hope not too many agree with you. Nice body panels are getting hard enough to find without being helped to get dinged, dented, or rusted. There's plenty of that crap out there. If you want rust, find it don't make it. IMHO

but i completely agree with you. what i was trying to say is that the faux-tina seems to be missing what is a big part of patina. that being surface rust, scratches, dents and dings which comes naturally from being a truck. sorry for the misunderstanding. faux-damage is totally different than faux-paint.

I love the smell of the inside of a rusting cab.

They are boss 338 in 20x8.5 with 5.25 backspace. I did have to grind the front rotors a little to fit. I love the wheels though.[IMG]

63C10step, what tire sizes are you running on the front and rear?

63c10step · 01-03-2013, 05:38 PM

I am running 255/45/20 on all four corners.

Bearcamp · 01-03-2013, 07:36 PM

This is my 37 and it's all Faux-Tina. I even have pics of the whole process. The bottom of the doors had putty in so I dug it out and there was sheet metal welded in and dented. So with alot of work I left the putty out and showed the crude metal work. If you look close enough you can see it at the door bottom.

waspp · 01-03-2013, 07:42 PM

Color scheme looks familiar! Can't wait to see what you do from here.

63c10step · 01-03-2013, 10:36 PM

Started painting the bed over the holidays.
