In this case,you can't call it a "Stripe Delete" vehicle,as you can't delete something it never was equipped with originally.
For 1970,the working Cowl Induction flapper hood came standard with "Cowl Induction" script,Hood Pins & Hood/Deck stripes.If the buyer asked for the stripes to be deleted,he was given a credit and the car was built w/o the stripes.That's where a "Stripe Delete" would apply. The standard Super Sport Bulge hood was just that,and needed RPO D-88 ordered to receive just the H&D stripes. Not meant to take anything away from this great Chevelle. |

Great car , Looks super in Astro Blue. Just a note D88 Hood and Deck stripes were not standard with the Super Sport package. They were included on the ZL2 option Cowl Induction hood. They were available on a Standard Super Sport hood as well as on a Malibu for and addition costs. The Only Stripe Delete is on a Cowl Inducted car and that is listed on the build sheet just like that Delete D88 striping. This is true of the 70, 71 and 72 model year all these guys claiming stripe delete are incorrect Most of your standard hood SS's Never had stripes Period.
