Stumbled across this link to my site... nice to know the word is getting out... :)

I've updated the site since this link was first posted... loads of pics of recent work.

I'm in Farnborough and Odiham (next to FH Ellis) so give me a shout if you want to discuss anything...

Having watched this guy in action at last year's Chop & Rod show, I can recommend his workmanship. May well be seeking you out for some stripes next year Si!

Hiya,
I've bumped into various forum members on my travels around the bike & car shows but no formal get-together yet. I vote we have the first one at Sinner's place -in Australia!  ;D

Very formal -black ties are compulsory -nothing else, just black ties.
Now I'm scaring myself!  :o

Hi Nefarious, welcome aboard!

Do you like Jaffa cakes?

Some lovely work on your site, love the pinstriping on what looks like the back door of a VW bus in pinstriping photos.

Very nice indeed, prices dont seem bad either  ;D

Very nice. Going on a Triumph?
My striping is still pants! Can you suggest any books for design ideas? It seems like I load the brush and my mind goes blank!

Is it off a trumpet? Eh eh. Am I becoming an oil tank anorak?


Title: Re: Pinstriping.
Post by: Manky Monkey on July 31, 2006, 10:30:47 PM
Yup, the first step on the slippery, (probably oily), slope towards becoming a rivet counter.

Here's the stripey Trumpet in question.
Photographed at the "HotRod Hayride" meet at the weekend. A weekend camping do in Bordon, Hants at the same site as the 3Bs' bike show with a run to Brooklands race circuit. Didn't do it but wish I had.

Will do...

Just waved goodbye to this...

(http://www.pinstriping.co.uk/offsite/trike.jpg)

a Rewaco VW based trike... we weren't sure what colours to use but in the end I chose Bright Red and Ivory... in the sunlight the red really stands out against the purple flake... did the top box, back side panels, leading edge of the rear fenders, tank and front fender... he went away a happy chappy...

(http://www.pinstriping.co.uk/offsite/trikeback.jpg)

(http://www.pinstriping.co.uk/offsite/trikefender.jpg)

I had to sit on it to do the tank... never been on one before... they are pretty comfortable, all sat back with high bars.

PS. the lid is only out as it got striped as well...

Not personally a big fan of VW kit trikes, mainly cos they all look the same, but that's some lovely workmanship Sir.
