HI, Yes, this is really an outstanding weathering job on the vehicle. Not to mention picture taking as well. A lot to be learned about the art of 'rusting' things up just a bit/ Outstanding.
Take care, Sgirty

I agree, it is totally jaw-dropping. However, I do tend to wonder if this is a vehicle just entered service, why the accumulation of rust? Mid or late yes. Initial? I do have to be a touch sceptical. On the other hand, I really do not want to see what this guy could do with a late version...
Look at the paint/rust - it's in layers for god's sake! ...Ack!..Jim

And it seems most of the rust is on the white, which would show it more, but would have been the last paint applied.
And is it just me or do the tools look almost brand new?
