I need to have my 1931 Special Sedan pinstriped. I procured a copy of the striping schematic from The Filling Station and needed to find a shop to do it. It's Amish/Mennonite buggy country around here. Recently I noticed very attractive pin striping on the buggy of a Mennonite friend. He told me the buggy was made by a Mennonite buggy maker about 20mi. from here. I visited the man this afternoon. He said he's done pinstriping on a number of old cars and if I "fetch" him to my shop he'll do it for about eighty bucks. Sounds like a very good deal to me so sometime in the near future I'll "fetch" him out. I'll give a report of how it turns out on this forum.

Best Regards,

Tom
