Reach out them, Chas (the owner) told me he has "lots" that is not on the website.

No problem, hope it helps someone.

I thought I would share this link in case anyone needs any Mopar specific paint in a spray can (he also does quarts I guess). What impressed me is that he has all of the argents even the orangsol as well as the high impact colors, oval air cleaner lid color, RR horn color, etc. On top of this...

Thats pretty much what I am going to do.

Hopefully I will be able to get my 71 into the shop soon and begin the build in earnest. I am going to mock it up and see what it looks like, perhaps I will post a pic on here to get some opinions. I am definitely leaning towards leaving it a long with multiple colors but I am also interested in...

That absolutely helps, thank you.

I looked it up, looks pretty interesting.

I appreciate your comments but I am not going to paint this car. I will drive as "patches" before that.

Yeah Rollings is a tool but Worman is a D bag.

First, thanks all for the discussion and advice. I thought that this might turn into a bit of a hate fest as I know there are many who do not like the patina look. Patrick66 - you bring up a good point in reference to just leaving it as it (patina B5, red fender, black hood, etc.). this is...

This car is going to be nice on the interior and the engine compartment, but I really don't want to paint it for a variety of reasons. As I said, I have a pile of nice cars such as...

Well I do not intend to clear over any real rust or damage, only the sun baked metal. I am doing this because I already have a stable of "nice" cars that I don't drive, I am thinking this way I will drive it.

I am going to try one panel and experiment.

Very helpful, thanks. I have looked online quite a bit concerning this issue and haven't found a lot about matching patina, there is quite a lot about "patinaing" a vehicle, faux patina, etc. but not a lot about making a new panel look like an existing old panel. I realize that its all related...

I am building a 71 Charger that was originally B5, however now it has a red passenger fender, black (EDP) drivers side quarter skin, black (EDP) drivers side lower quarter patch and a EDP air grabber hood. I would like to try and match the existing faded B5 patina that is on the rest of the car...

Its just metal, it can be cut out and replaced. If you are looking to do it yourself, well then you need the equipment of course but it is not rocket science. If you are thinking about paying someone to do it, then yes it might not be worth the cost because repairing that rust is a time...

So very true

Not upset at all just responding to jerk wad comments in kind. There is always someone who is positive that what they like/believe is the only acceptable course of action and they are always the ones who come out swinging with stupid crap. It would take a lot more than written words on a forum...

Ah another keyboard warrior filled with self importance and self righteousness. There are plenty of these "pieces of history" in museums, collections, etc. so I don't think there is much risk of them fading away. You are obviously a "purist worried about whether or not the right type/marked bolt...

I never said they weren't "special" but that is a relative term, I think they are special in terms of the designs, attributes and place in automotive history but I do not think they are so special that they should not be altered. Most of these cars were altered within the first week of original...
