Look at the stripes on a real car and then this car. You will see the difference with this car. Roger

The stripe's at the rear are squared off where Motion had a gracefull curve to them is what jumps out to me on first look. Roger I have to agree with you that it just is not quite right looking but I like the way it does look though.

I agree too, something is just not right. The stripes (to me) definitely look too square. Although I've seen a bunch of different stripe styles on BM cars, I've never seen any with stripes that square. When I see a 70-73 BM Camaro, I usually see: gracefully curved in stripes, sidepipes, and a wood grain steering wheel. . . all of which are missing. As for more examples of stripes, here's three photos.

Pretty cool looking driver, but those wheels have GOT TO GO.

Sorry, photo too large. This one has stripes that slope downward, instead of upward like the first one. I've also seen very skinny stripes. I think it all had to do with what the customer wanted at the time, but probably all of them had graceful curved stripes at the back.

I dont think those wheels look too bad. I've seen a lot worse! Give me a set of Keystones or Cragar SS any day!
