Can I see some pics posted of '05+ cars with the oldstyle thin freehand pinstriping?
I did a search on "stripes, striping and pinstriping" and can't find what I'm looking for. If it's already been done, my apologies, and can someone link me there?

Any good body shop should have a pin stripe painter available. Look for a shop that does restoration work, they'll be more likely to have a connection if they don't do it themselves.
I had my Cougar restored several years ago and it looked naked without the proper painted dual pin stripes (they were standard on all 67-70 Cougars except Eliminators of course. 71-73 Cougars had tri-strpes).
I know I've seen someone on here with a black 05 GT with a red pin stripe, but it was tape. It was pretty subtle, I could barely see it in the pics, but probably a nice addition in person.

Thanks for the responses folks.
Bryan, I'll check your pics out when your site is back up.
Hope you and yours come through Rita okay.
Our prayers are with you and everyone in the area.

Site is back up. Thanks for the concern guys
No worries down here - it completely by-passed the Lake Jackson/Freeport area.

Bryan, thanks for the link.
I really like the ghost effect of your stripes.
That freehand style of striping is what I'm looking to do on my car.
Was at a local car show earlier today and saw a '40 ford with freehand striping on it that I really liked. Got a name and address for the stripe painter from the ford's owner. When we get back from vacation in a couple of weeks, I'll check with the painter, and see what he can do for me.
