Not a bad summary about the art however, pinstriping wasn't invented in America as he said. It has a long history long before we started striping here. Here's a little info I picked up through the google machine.
Many people assume that the art of modern day pinstriping is associated with Hot Rod giants such as Von Dutch , George Barris and a host of others. In fact it's origins can be traced throughout history, back prior to the roman empire whose designs embellished a myriad of objects in their every day life. From Gypsy Wagons to 19th century fire trucks, tracing a line to the beginnings of our human society.
