A very nice fnishing touch to a great Model A. Everyone should try pinstriping (I did and was a total failure). Then they would appreciate the talent required for this art form even more.

Awesome stripe work man

And that Caddy emblem just keeps looking better and better

Striping looks awesome...

So do you want to trade for a Tudor?

KnoxVegas · May 18, 2011

TiredIronGRB · May 19, 2011

The striping really sets the car off. Great job all around TiredIron.

TiredIronGRB · May 19, 2011

Thanks! I drove it to work this morning and froze my nads off (49 degrees) but it was worth it.

I went back and checked and it was a Dillon, very good quality and crazy cheap $199.

That what I ordered up for my build... Mine arrived damaged one of the lower brackets was badly bent...they were very rude to me on the phone and then told me just to bend it back... oh well...

stripes really look nice!

TiredIronGRB · May 19, 2011

I cut the brackets off mine and moved them up about 3/4" so the shell would be just a little lower than the cowl.

Nice Job. Like the color and Striping. How long have you been striping for? When I have free time I have been practing; so a total of 6 hours so far. Very difficult to do.

TiredIronGRB · May 19, 2011

I had the striping done...if I did it, it would look like a blind epileptic riding a pogo stick did it

Funny, I know exactly what that would look like! hahahaha

jfg455 · May 19, 2011

mine looked like a quadrapliegic epilileptic with parkinsons did it as he sat on a tack.........

TiredIronGRB · May 19, 2011

Drove it about 50 miles today, it did really good. Brought it back home and re-adjusted the brakes and went over all the suspension and made sure everything was tight. Got some better shots of the striping.
