I came up with the name of my project memory hauler, mainly because it is a tribute to the family and special people passed on that touched my life. To be honest, so far so good. And now I turn this site for some ideas.
I know the place I want to end up, but I am not sure how to get there.

The memory hauler is a 1965 Ford F250 that I want to make look old style. Currently she is a white over red and I wish to go to the faded paint look, and keeping this truck stock. The main concept here, memories are old, so therefore so shall the truck.

Faded paint, I have see trucks / cars with the look, and I have heard a few different ways of doing it.
How do I go about this?
Thanks

 

So, you are after some Patina, check out these products-

Modern Masters

click on the Reactive Metallic Paints and then on the Patina Aging Solution and Activator i have see a old Harley Davidson done with this material... Looked Very Cool!

 

Recently on Power block TV;the Trucks eipisode did a patina effect on a old chevy truck; shown step by step detail on how to accomplish this look. I havn't brought up the Power block forum lately; but it might be on there.

powerblocktv.com I beleive is the web site.
