Default Re: 1969 Camaro Special Order Paint Process

If I am not mistaken the wiper cowls were striped at Fisher at the same time the deck was striped. HOWEVER given the information Phil has uncovered I would (IF POSSIBLE)check to see if there is a variation in original stripe color front to rear... if so I would venture to guess the possibility exists that the wiper cowl was repainted to match the hood stripes in the touch-up booth.

FWIW The stripe color front to rear looked off on the original paint black RS/Z, not by much but my opinion was the front looked like Ermine and the rear like Dover. The Wiper cowl stripe color match matters less on a Cowl Hood car than a flat hood because of the way the hood overhangs the wiper cowl.
