How to restore patina?

Rather than leaving my 1950 truck alone for 6 months to figure which direction I wanted to go I started removing the paint off of all the fenders. Looking back at the pictures when I first picked it up I am now kicking myself for doing this. The cab, hood, bed and doors are untouched and I have been wondering if there is a way to match decades old paint with a faux patina or do I just keep moving on? I dont want to have a pristine looking paint job so I am leaning to either a complete paint job that looks aged or do I try to match the old?
Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks
