Default stripe color?

What color should the stripes be on a 69 Z28, frost green, no vinyl top, green interior? Black, or white?

Could be any of three choices; Black, White, NONE.

A friend of mine just sold an early build car exactly as you describe, originally a Frost Green/green gut/no stripe.

Personal preference: I like the contrast the Black gives.

I believe black, the only exception was if it had a white vinyl top.

I was specifically stating stripe color for frost green. Fathom green stripes were always white. Rally green also had white stripes without a vinyl top. What color green are referring to??

I had thought, perhaps incorrectly, that unless you had a blk vinyl top, you got white stripes. Most hugger orange Z's I've seen had white with no blk top. Blk top, blk stripes. I find nothing on the trim tag with this car to tell me either way. I would think there was something that kicked it one way, or another.
