    It doesn’t look anything like our low riders over here….
    but you did a fine job.
    Very curly-Q-ey.
    Nice to see some pinstriping here.
    Love…..Jill

    Trouble is Jill our cars over here aren’t as cool as those you have over there.
    This is a Ford Scorpio, not very cool if you ask me, but it had airbags fitted and bounced like crazy. :jump:

    😕

    As a first attempt you done really well
    Take care when using white though it can overpower the whole design

    I have found that using white to lighten my first stripe colour looks nice
    did it get you hooked ?

    Terry, thanks very much. Yeh the customer insisted on white but I know what you mean.

    And yes I’m hooked, I do quite a few Jaguar , Cherokee Jeeps and the odd Rolls Royce with straight coachlines for body repair shops but this was the first fancy job.

    Richard, I’m sure it was a Granada Scorpio?

    Cheers Neil
