I posted a link to my orig paint car with extended stripe, and Jonesy has a pic as well in his post.

Steve, I forgot about your car as an example of original paint and the extended stripes...and I even remember looking at the car in person at past GM Carlisle events, I'd just never taken note of the stripes.
Does it look as if they were stenciled all at once, fender and all or separately? Is there any bleed or loose edge on the stripe as it passes over the fender to extention seam? Also, William you're correct...I should have said IF it has wheel well mouldings it should have drip rail as well, as they were part of the same Style Trim package. Never should you have drip rail and no wheel well, or wheel well and no drip rail mouldings, but the quarter gills were included separately as part of the X66 package as well as the rocker sill blackout which was also included with Style Trim. Sorry if I've confused anyone...back to discussuing correct hockeystick stripes. |

Interesting thread! I have a 10D (early) base 69 convertible and I am going to put the D90s on. Should I extend the stripe like Steve's car?

[/ QUOTE ] According to Steve's analysis, your car should have the extended stripes, unless there is another factor. Does anyone know if the extended stripe could have been associated with one particular assembly plant? I for one would like to know if all early cars had this extended stripe regardless of where they were built? ![]() Steve, where was your L/34 built? Mike, where was your Camaro built? Does anyone else have, or did you have, an early build car with the extended stripes? If you did, would you possibly remember the assembly plant? ![]() This is a great topic. Steve

My car is a Norwood built car. I believe it was common to both plants.

That picture was taken in July of 2000 at the Monmouth County Fair in NJ. The orig owner shown was a parks commissioner and in charge of that event. That was the first time he had seen the car in 19 years. He is pictured with the weird hub caps. The day before the car was at the Camaro National @ Carlisle being judged in the Vintage Certification program. Anyone interested in our survivor class certification program please contact me.
