Funny how that works. Put bulk time and effort into something doesn't sell for much. Something looks like **** sells for heaps.

People dig the retro "rat" look. A car that looks like it has been sitting in a paddock or a barn for years is more visually appealing. A car that you make look really nice isn't that appealing to most people and they won't spend up big on them. Unless it's a commssioned job, just either restore to factory or get it running and driving as is.

Having a laugh at "Turn and Burn" at the moment, some of the crap he has go through his workshop. I wouldn't buy a car from him unless it's as he found it.

Oh gawd, patina, I can't stand that look.

Watched the bandit ones last night and omg it was awesome. Not so keen on watching the rr one now after all the comments on it.

On the right car it looks good good though. Saw a VT with a "patina'd" bonnet not long ago. Made me want to kick a kitten.

Still not a fan lol. But each to their own. Was funny when KC was getting to the point where he was sick of clear coating them.
