I tried to search for this for awhile, and I'm sure that this has been covered so sorry for the repeat if so... I'm looking for someone to stripe my car (66 Barracuda in Los Angeles) and I want something in the vein of 50s and 60s hand painted signs. Not looking for the traditional hot rod Ed Roth / Von Dutch style. and I'm not looking for something really elaborate... I know, of course, that this is a home for traditional hot rod culture, and I love traditional hot rod style and culture, but I am looking for something a little different (as my car is not really a traditional hot rod). If anyone is interested send me a PM or respond with any help or suggestions here... Thanks so much. -MICHAEL
Maybe try going to the show this Saturday at Gasoline in El Segundo. Makoto is bad ***. He and his crew will be there.................. in from Japan.
Makoto is a bad *** ... take it from a pinstriper... if i was in the LA i would offer my work you can see what my work looks like. i have some stuff for sale here on the hamb under Misc. For Sale. Cl***ifieds i have two pinstriping yard sale's going right now!! -BEAR! GO WITH MAKOTO !!!
Get in touch with Spencer Getty. He does some cool work. Not only is he a pinstriper, but an amazing artist who does some great work. HTTP://WWW.MYSPACE.COM/GETTYCUSTOMS Wil www.sakowskimotors.com

Emil Anzalone of Venice is "da man." He can lay a single pinstripe on a helmet or paint your whole car in any kind of Fifties/Sixties style, all with equal aplomb.
Nice Cuda dude, you were at Bobs Big Boy Friday night weren't ya? Looked pretty much all original down I the hubcaps
Thanks Eric! Yup, I try to make it to Bob's every week, but... the only thing that isn't original is the flat paint! Hoping to get some gloss on there next spring but baby on the way so? What are you driving? -MICHAEL
