Car looks great. Had wondered how you had done the mudguards as hadn’t seen any MMC decals like that.

Watching the old skool art of a pinstriper or signwriter is wonderfully therapeutic. I really want to try my hand, but wimp out..!!
Looks great from here, anyway..!

the painter was inspired by the American race cars of the 60s

goodness - how splendid.
I was wondering how many MTW have been customised with non-Morgan standard colours and decals etc.

Years ago there was a chap working at a car coachbuilders who was good at the pin striping. I loved watching him add stripes the proper way when working there in school hols. I remember him working on the cartwheels and horse rigging woodwork on a Hansom Cab my dad had restored for a customer. Also some striping on a couple of bike tanks.

it's hard to find a good talented painter who does pinstriping. In addition mine is not very expensive however the delays are very long
