Title: Pin Striping
Post by: SD Glenn on March 31, 2011, 08:41:27 PM
How you all doing? I am down to getting ready to pin stripe the 1929 Plymouth Coupe. Can anybody tell me where the pin striping goes? Does it follow the moldings, where the paint colors come together? How about the lower stripes also? and how wide are they, less than 1/4 inch? If someone can describe the process to me I sure need the help. All the pictures I find do not show a good pictue of the pin striping where I can make out where they are located. Thanks

I suggest that you contact the 1929 technical advisor in the Plymouth Owners Club for this detail of information....

I should probably have it on my web site, but I am not familiar enough with that model to post anything definitive.

The AACA Library can be a great and authoritative help for this kind of information, for a small fee.

Glenn - have to do some digging but I photo'd an original 29 sedan in the Hartford,. Wis museum a couple of summers ago.  Paid particular attention to the striping - now I just gotta find the photos to scan and email to you!

Thanks Jim
I know a couple other people that need that info to, now. I am looking forward to Spring, (not here yet or where you live.lol)  so I can go for a cruise around Watertown. Quite a few people are waiting for me to get this done. LOL.  But no one is offering to come help..... LOL Except my oldest son, has spent quite a few evening here.  This is what it looks like now.....

Hi Glenn, I will send you a picture of my pinstriped wheels to your email. I can not get the picture to load on this site for some reason. May be some one can help with instructions. Thanks Bill

Here's is one in the Walter P Chysler Museum, don't know if it's authentic but given it's location it might be close....
