Your "aged" paint looks pretty good. Not easy to get it to look that great. My 49 is about the same color.... except somebody painted the entire thing with a brush at some point.... yuck! Can't wait ot see it all finished and put back together

Thank erichevy It has definitely been a chore to get the look right. I am hoping to finish the Cab (last piece) done this weekend.

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI

Well I am in the home stretch of the body work. 2 weeks from today "Cecil" will be in MO at SKYMANGS shop for the S-10/5.7 TPI transformation. This weekend I repainted the cab in an attempt to match the "Patina". Next week will "age" the paint by sanding and rusting it. Here are the before pics.

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI

I finished up the Cab exterior this weekend and come Friday Cecil is headed to SKYMANGS shop in MO. The photos aren't that good it was late, I was tired and lighting was not that good. But here is the "aged" cab that should flow nicely with the rest of the "Rusto-Mod" look I am going for.
