No sir. 2nd owner put that on in early 90s. I think it sets the car off nicely, though. I like it but have contemplated taking it off. No stripes looks a bit more sinister/stealthy.

I agree...no stripe

I must admit that it looks great without the stripe. Very sinister looking.

I vote in favor of the stripe....I think they look naked without

Cool car either way, but I think I'm with Bill.

And I agree with Dennis and Bill...looks way cooler with the red stripe. Sets off the interior, too!

Just got my July '08 Hemmings Muscle Machines with Sam's '69 L78 on the cover with a nice 6 page write up by Sam with many of the pics seen here. (Great now EVERYBODY will know about my favorite Chevelle.....I'll never own it at this rate...)

The issues a keeper. Right after Sam's car is the most amazing low mile '67 GS400 I've ever seen (under 10K miles, black on YELLOW, 4 speed, wow). Resto Profile is of a nice 440-6 4sp Superbird, and even the late model modified is an '84 Monte SS with an L98 TPI engine and a t56 manual trans, everything looking factory.

Good job, Sam. Everybody else go and get yourselves a copy.
