Patina Touring
 

61 Parkwood Wagon done--made it to Columbus (9 hrs without issue)--Boris is the man! Ridetech front sway bar, air ride system, Billet Specialties 18 and 20 Boneville's with custom powder coating to highlight interior colors. Borgensen box (all cars should have one-holy difference!!), 700R4 etc. Adding some tunes and it is ready to cruise with kids and their friends.


62-- new project - EXCESS PARTS-- 454 stroked sbc with Borla FI and tremec 5 speed going in! along with air ride suspension and rear upgrades. Plan is to have it ready for parents 50th Anniv. next year (justifiied by the Anniversary Gold factory color) so they can enjoy it too. Maybe they would like an auto, but.......

Brad

PS this is what happens when you owned one of SW's cars and then return it to him--you realize paint and fit and finish are overrated :thumbsup:

I hope that patina is here to stay. Those faded glory beauties look as good to me as any show finish. I would pass a row of gleaming paint to get a better look at your car!

What I hope is not here to stay are horse blanket seat covers and rusted, cobbled together interiors... or engine bays full of iron pipe and toilet parts and old mailboxes... but I digress...


Jeff-

Cars will never be painted under my care!!

We need more pics of both. I love them

Boris is a good dude purchased my air ride from him makes some nice ****, great style.

My next build will have patina. I want a worn out farm truck look. It will remind me of my grandad every time I drive it. Down the road I would like to build a piece of automotive art like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqaSSmx2o38

Something with patina, but also many thoughtful details for people to discover.

That is just freakin AWESOME!!!!!!!!I love that look!!!!!!

Love 'em!!!


My next build is a Patina car.... Thinking maybe a '40 Ford pick up - shortened bed etc - or some nonsense like that.

Brad,they look bad ass kid!!

Thx, lets roll soon, Big george will love the 'vert once its completed. Need the power to run with your rides

Yea we gotta get together ASAP!! This weekend or upcoming week at any car cruise u in?

Love it!!!!

It cracks me up to see a chromed and pollished show car sitting next to a patina'd gem like that... and see the patina get all the attention.

Sweet rides Brad, love them!!

Man I would kill for a 62 chevy wagon like one of those, just bad ass!

Thanks guys, plan on using wagon all weekend with the kids and their friends. George give me a holler

u got it Brad!!

Love both of them!!! The best part is definitely the patina. You have my gears going now with the patina on my Cadillac. Might just keep it that way!

Love the patina....I can't tell you how many people tell me that they love my car just the way it is...I actually have had a couple tell me "NEVER paint this car!"

Sorry for the hijack.....

Yes, Boris Maryanovski is the man. I bought my Shockwaves from him for my C10 about 3 years ago. Really cool dude.
