New Guy: Getting the Shiny Off New Parts

BBQ Chains - is this a new fetish or southern hospitality?

 

A picture really is worth a thousand words.

Where do you find this stuff?

Oh thats right, we were talking about "pee-tina"

 

Hey Hey Hey how did Florida get dragged into this
BTW if anyone needs some vintage, period correct patina (AKA rust) let me know I've been cutting tons of it out of my 55 AD feel free to use it for your R*T R*D

 

DAMN!!!!! , I got here as soon as I could...... sorry I'm late , here ya go guys.....

 

Is this the thread to sign up for the FNG Tech Week Contest?

Guess who's (hijacked) intro this was pulled from...

"I expect I'll be primarily a lurker here, but all the "patina" talk hooked me in. Not because I necessarily prefer patina, but because the rags are glorifying it...and I'll take any opportunity to have my rusty junk considered as "in.""

Did you guess the OP? Correct!

If you are going to do something dumb, at least do it for the right reasons!

 

if i had a virtual concession stand i'd park it next to this thread..... i'd be rich

 

Wow - just.... wow.

 

wait for it....wait for it....

 

this is classic!

 

If you can't make it look good, make it rust!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

mix vinegar peroxide salt spray your chains will rust but smell really bad

 

Take the piece of rope that holds your pants up and use that.

 

Some jackass apparently paid $70,400 for this flaming piece of garbage on Tuesday at BJ, so what do I know:

Not sure what he did for his chains, but my guess was he probably didn't spend much effort on them judging by the rest of the truck. Patina away I guess.

 

Complete frame off restoration? Rat truck? For shame Barrett-Jackson!
