SELF INTRODUCTION: Hi Dan, thanks for your time and energy spent on this new board. I hope you will give me a waiver on the email account, I have used gmail so long I don't have a clue what my service provider account is.
I just returned home from a 2 week trip in New Mexico, have a few good pix, can't wait to share my off-highway traveling. Got to put 1400 miles on the scoot.

Big Daddy Roth and Von Dutch discuss pinstriping

Original poster has comments on youtube about the dark smudge under Dutch's nose.
It is actually due to film quality enhancing shadows, you can see it is not there in the closeups.

SELF INTRODUCTION: I was on the last board as bonustoolkit. I have changed that to my given name.
I started a project build there " File and Fit." I paln to continue that when I go back home in Dec. 2011. I first joined the board when Gary W had it in the year 2005. That was the time I really gained an interest in building chops. I have a long way to go, compared to some here.

How much knowledge has been lost with the passing of the early customizers?

The use of lacquer thinned with banana oil to dye leather got my attention.
Imagine being able to blend a custom color for a special project.

What else did they know that they didn't consider important, but it's lost now.

Dutch's views about how striping began was interesting. Look how the early customizing developed into the Kustom Kulture.
