----Helmut,,, I'm sure you know, but the drivers door was painted below the stripe. The tape mark is evident in your great pic. Rear quarter on the same side as well, But it's such a cool ride it's no biggie to me. Love the car, and I'm not generally a 67 GTO guy, but a big time Poncho slappy!....Bill S

That's a Great One, Helmut!! I believe that I can still see just a remnant of the white stripes that originally went all the way to the headlight bezel on the right side. I've seen other '67s where the stripes were "polished through" in this same spot. Here's an example.

Interesting on the wrap-around stripes at the fender-to-door. I have photos of another survivor '67 like that (Fremont Plant, 05C Build) and I just assumed they weren't original stripes being that way. Maybe they are!

My Turn...
I just took these photos today to show how sloppy my stripes were done. This is a fairly late built '67, (06D) from the Fremont Plant. If it wasn't for the little wheel marks in the stripes, I would swear they were done by a shaky hand. Also notice that the upper stripe continued onto the left front headlight bezel. And check out the horrible left front fender-to-door gap as well. Must have been a Friday car.

A zoom in “seems” to show both sides are “maybe” the same (doors and quarters) show a tape line below the bottom factory pinstripe ?? Bad ass “7” convertible with a power antenna no less. Was it ordered with a Blue drop top? Thanks for posting your Factory pinstripes. Chris.

Hey Grant,
Did you shave today? BTW, I like sloppy, as it was a mass produced automobile that didn’t know it would be critiqued many decades later. Last edited by 60sStuff; 03-22-2021 at 02:30 AM.

The “AMES” ‘67
Special order paint, Sherwood Green with white pinstripes.
Sure looks like a spot of white paint on that LH headlight bezel.

It also has handprints in the paint, on the hood and trunklid, and a hair in the quarter panel. K
