Media Patina Appreciation: Show Us Your Rusty Land Cruiser! (1 Viewer)

[Dizzy]

Some of the overspray got on the wheels. Patina is good, patina with overspray is even better. That '64 is one beautiful 40.

Not original paint but plenty of patina

I’m close. Wish you had.

Pig and I went out in the Pig that way

We don’t need no stinking paint

I’ve resisted this because I realized you really can’t see it on the phone. That’s plywood From the doors back on both sides. Fueled by a VW big gas tank that sits next to me.

Stuck in 4lo, plow lights, heat and wipers work, but no brakes which can be adventurous.

NOw we're talking! Those are my kind of mods!

My land cruisers little brother 1979 Hilux, I call him Royota. A gentleman named Roy bought this truck new in Oregon and his grandson inherited it when he passed. I picked it up from him last October it had been sitting in a field for years. Roy liked doing metal work in his spare time which I think give the truck a lot of character.

Factory fender flares and round headlights on the early trucks

Put some fresh boiled linseed oil on the Goat today. Too damn hot to do anything else.

First treatment lasted 4 months.

The BLO really soaked in fast in the bed so I added a fine mist of fluid film. I’m in love with this stuff

Please give me that truck. And throw that old scattergun in with it too.

I'll be needing it for squirrels n' such!

Do you know the Rose of Alabama?

I'm only about 7 miles off the Trace too. No Land Cruiser right now, but lots o' brake parts...

 

[JohnBoy]

Sure do know the Rose of Alabama. And every time I hear it, I get spry as a ruttin' buck.

Once upon a time, I had a ton of kin folk north of you in Troy, Mississippi. Back in the day, the 41st called for their service at Pontotoc Courthouse. I think I may have a cousin or two that still lives in around there but not 100% sure. I remember my grandfather took me back there to visit when I was a kid. I shot a big fox squirrel there with a little 20 gauge Browning A5 shotgun. My grandfather cleaned it and when he sat it down, a half wild cat ran off with the carcass. Never will forget it.

Not a bad starting point.
