Had a green '52 Chevy picked out by bride. As rust spots appeared, (Chevys
were famous for that in the early '50s), I would sand them out and and
rattle-can spray them with a brown combination undercoat and finish. Even
for a college student, this green car with brown spots all over was
memorable. It did distract ones attention from the original color which was
sort of a "sick baby green".

I needed one. 'Probably 'cause nobody else would buy it.
