Thats good work, thats the thing that the people building and buying those high dollar hotrods don,t understand. Some of us don,t have a million dollars and we still enjoy our rods the way they are even more than the big $$$$$$ stuff.
That's awesome. Anytime you can preserve OE paint it's good. I'm currently working on removing the black spray paint from my engine compartment to show the original JJ1 Gold. I don't have a video on it yet because I want to get a little bit more cleaned off first.
I saw your posts on facebook man, when I was cleaning these, I was thinking about you removing all of that black paint, I can't wait to see all of that gold exposed
Love the tunes in the back ground. Classic workin in the shop tunes. ZZ-top are up here this summer. Radio station or off your phone? Great job as always Jed. Thanks for the insight.
I struggle back and forth endlessly over the "petina look". I think it looks great on older, unfinished cars and makes it look like a road bully, looking for someone's ass to kick. But I also got a love for a nice paint job on old iron muscle cars. Nothing made today matches the lines of the late 60's early 70's, especially the old Mopars.
I feel the same way my friend, I believe Patina only looks right on certain cars, it doesn't work on every single vehicle. I will be painting my Charger someday, but that day is long in the future
I gotta tell you, I am jealous of your time and mechanical skills. I am working my 1973 roadrunner that someone stripped to try and make a race car out of. the more I work on making it a good daily driver muscle car the more I find they screwed it up. Got a 1968 Moanco 440 from an old police car cammed up with ported heads and a highrise manifold pulling just over 500 horses. I have to remove all of the unmatched crap stuffed into the interior so that I can replace it with roadrunner/satellite pieces I can find and "restore". Bottom line bro, watching you work your magic keeps me fired up on my project.
I don't know if you should be jealous in any way man, with my 73 Satellite, the previous owners were serious meth heads and they cut the shit out of the wiring and just fucked a bunch of stuff up, when I got the car, I am pretty sure the exhaust was held together with tape, the 400 ran on 6 cylinders(the owners claimed it had a BIG cam), and I cannot tell you how many wires we found cut and just twisted together.... So I know you pain there and with Jezebel, she was just completely stripped, not much left to use lol. Anyways man, you keep up the good work and let me know if you post any videos of your 73
There were two versions, S/E's and R/T's have padded upper door pads and padded quarter glass panels, however on base model cars like mine, they were just painted sheet metal
Missed a spot, that looks pretty good actually. What color is that? I had a 69 more or less the same shape and I thought it was B-1 blue. Hard to say cause mine had the exact same fade. Never crashed it had it original and perfect chrome trim, also a hard top. Used to have to hide it otherwise people knocked on my door asking if it was for sale.
Thanks man, I was surpirsed that this little tricked worked, this is B5 Blue, it is my favorite shade of blue offered in the Mopars. I wouldn't blame you on hiding your 69 man, I hate it when people pester me or other owners to sell them our cars, because we "let them set" instead of tearing them up
Ok. I've watched this three times and I can not understand what you are using, here to clean those parts up. Pease, , , what are you using to do this once work??????????????
I 've been asked by a customer to do a "Patina" job on a car. I have been watching how to's on this technique, and after watching quite a few, came to the conclusion that there is no set way of doing it. Lots of different techniques and products.

Cool looking good
Thank you brother
Ok...glass cleaner! got it!
Nice job let's see how they go in
They'll be going in soon
Keep up the good work! Love the ratty muscle car trends!
I will never stop brother

I couldn't agree more my friend, just a little time and elbow grease shows a persons true love for cars, instead of just throwing dollars at it
Agreed

Going to give this a shot on my 67 dart it's a similar blue but has alot of surface rust on dash and tops of doors like these did on the top
It works man, I did it to my 66 Dart to remove rust stains on the paint, and the car looks so much better
I'm building a ratty muscle car on my channel and I'm probably doing this to the exterior. Thanks for the video.
No problem brother, anything to help out a fellow car guy, I think I will go check out what you are building

It was playing on the radio, I am glad you enjoyed the video friend.

where they oringinally covered with fabric? or were they always straight sheet metal?
There were two versions, S/E's and R/T's have padded upper door pads and padded quarter glass panels, however on base model cars like mine, they were just painted sheet metal
What products are you using to clean the old paint? I see you applying some white colored product to clean it.
It's water and hand soap.

Glass cleaner and steel wool, right?
Yes, but you could use soapy water or plain water as well
Looks great ! What number steel wool did you use ?
Thanks man, I only use 0000, it is the finest you can get it in, I use to clean chrome, old paint, interior parts, pretty much everything
Love me some ratty patina.
Same here my friend, this b5 blue and rust go hand in hand
Ok. I've watched this three times and I can not understand what you are using, here to clean those parts up. Pease, , , what are you using to do this once work??????????????
It is simply just soapy water, or just plain water and 0000 steel wool, you have to make sure to get the finest grit steel wool
Doesn’t look like water looks like a aerosol spray
In one shot it looks like it's heavy duty glass cleaner. I definitely skipped through the whole video a million times trying to find out!

The only true way to get a real patina paint job is to let Mother Nature do her job, but I have some tricks to matching patina
What's the purpose of preserving a corroded surface ??? the rust can appear again easialy !!
Because preserving original paint is much cooler than just repainting it, also to this day, the rust has not re-appeared
