Re: Pin Stripes

My dad pinstriped some of the very early classic cars such as Duesenberg, Packard, and Pierce Arrow back in the 1920's when he worked for custom body maker Erdmann Geider including one of Henry Ford's personal cars. He used pinstriping brushes with very long bristles. The pinstripes were created with one stroke of the brush from front to rear. There are still some of the masters who do it the same way as the oldtimers like my dad.
