The "rustic" look on cars. You like? No like?

[Gracie]

The new "in" thing now is to leave rusted/patina cars as is but with a clear coat to protect it from further rust and peeling of paint. And they are selling for very high amounts.

Do you guys (and gals) like that look? Speaking for myself...no. On furniture and antiques, yes. On antique cars? Um, not so much.

No likey.

Love the bug colors though. I could see that on a dresser!

No. Classics should be restore to their natural beauty.

And of course you would do an awesome job on it as usual.

Rat Bikes have been a category at motorcycle shows for years.

They look like junkyard rejects, but people put a lot of time and effort to making them look that way, while being mechanically solid and perfect running. ...

Barf on that.
Though I have to admit Welderup has put out a couple cool ones.

Automotive nihilism.

Rustic's not for me when it comes to classic cars. I go with the original. Nothing else will do, period.

The original color name for my '62 VW 1200 Beetle is Beryl green, but I've always referred to it as baby shit yellow.

No, I don't like it.
