Good thing you're around to interpret, Bruce

Personally, I am very happy to see this car in such capable hands now. I'm sure it will be lookin' good when they are done

so you are restoring the underbody to the condition it was in prior to being blasted (including adding patina)???
my suggestion would be to restore the underside factory correct then drive down a gravel road, fast, do a few burnouts drive down a muddy road then let it sit for a month, clean it up and you should be there. im being serious.

No we are not going to restore the car to it's "original patina". What I wanted to see was exactly how the car was primed, oversprayed and gravel guard was applied so that we can duplicate it exactly. It will be restored to concourse correct not survivor appearance.
