Parts are slowly coming via trades and good deals, remember I’m trying to contradict the high roller-ne$$ of the Cook Culture.

Meanwhile, I was able to hook up with a semi-local member for all this rusty goodness.

OK, the chrome pedals were a bit to chrome, so I’m going Black!

Getting ready to lay down some colors under the final flat black, just not sure which ones or the layering sequence so it looks correct when I start sanding. I was planning on using these keyboard grips, but then found this set green wheels that I like a lot. Grips are easy to change and much cheaper than wheels...

Give me your thoughts on my Faux Patina?!?

With regards to your RaT-ina, I would do a primer red first coat, followed by a dark gray tone, then your black; all in matte .

That way the black will fade into the gray as you sand, and the red will come through just in the deepest places.

I kinda like the flat white....green ano rims are sweet!

I had seen these grips on an other build and really liked the look, but did not know they came in green!

Ok, I think I might be headed in the right direction, all depends on the sanding. Colors are coming into focus a bit. Laid down some green over the white base and will have to wait till morning to see how it looks against the wheels.

Not the best match, have to wait for the grips to arrive and see where the happy medium is. Glad to be back on track.

Using multiple color shades in the same basic hue is popular right now. I personally think your colors work well together. And the common metallic flavor helps bind them as well.

The green looks mean. Swirl grips seem to go good with anything that's close.

Forgot to add this transitional photo of the many coats of ratina. Outcome is relative to grit and pressure.
