She explained that many times they were in a hurry and the stripes on the hood as well as the body were not straight and each car could be different from the next. Ditto for the stripe being installed after the chrome grilles. Some had them and some did not. I went through many original photographs before these were put on by Joe and Brian and think they are perfect. Below is a photo of our hood and one off Chad's original paint Yenko built very close to ours. As you can see, his were even more angled. Is there a right way or a wrong way? I don't think so.

Looks like people start from the edge of the syc emblem and just try to keep equal space and then work their way back towards the cowl
