The Walker and Geary Altered getting a push from the repainted (still with soul) Erv Campbell bucket.



Moments later, this was likely the scene.

Sick of me, yet?

 

This 26/27 is very classy.



This touring below is an odd one. Look at the "hairpin" mount.

 

After posting cars that had so much, sometimes too much, this earlier style looks great - just the single line highlighting the body line.

 

Looks like the basic idea has been around for a long time. And the rods have some classy ancestry.

I had my truck panel striped. I love the look and plan to take it a lot further in the next iteration when I upgrade to the Hemi power plant.

 

Even before that! They were striping carriages and trains!

That is really sharp.

 

So this thread makes me wonder what happened to all of these T's and A's? We have one hanging from a bar's ceiling in my town. You just don't see that many of them at events these days.

 

Two variations of the panel striping on the McMullen Roadster. This car was constantly evolving.

 

How cool is this?!


Another:

 

This 32 (posted earlier) really is quite something.

 

Very slight panels with this one.

 

Another shot of that red Bantam roadster.

 

Awesome thread with a million ideas!

 

Conny Högberg's Model A

 

Prowler's at the track: All panel striped.

 

"Shop truck" with slicks.

 

Supposedly this coupe was panel striped by a 14-year-old named Butch.

 

This is a neat one. There are a lot of little details to seek out. I put it on its own, not because of the Hemi w/ a 6x2 and belled tips but because of the front spring.

Cedric Meeks' 34 - Striped by Mitch Kim

Look closely at that bold white bodyline stripe... very cool. Lots of work.
