Hand lettering and pinstriping is a true art and the folks that do it well are really fun to watch. I’ve got a few friends who are incredibly talented, and have been lucky enough to watch them work on occasion. In this video below you’ll see a young lady named HotRod Jen lettering and striping a door on a hot rod Chevy pickup, The work is clean and cool and even includes turned silver leaf! But painting up a door logo is more than just putting paint on a brush, it’s also about the layout and design which has to be right before any of the painting begins, and you are going to see all of it in this video below.
From start to finish, this piece comes together and makes you want to have some custom stripe and lettering done on your own ride, or at least it does for me!
Jen does awesome work! We see her and her work every year at the Syracuse Nationals panel jam and charity auction
