Does anyone have a 68 Marti report calling listing the reflective package or group in the list of options.

Have a number with the upper pin stripe (with the color notated) but not an example with the reflective package

Thanks

A few years ago we bought a set of 68 ten spoke wheels that had the reflective paint on them. It looked like it would be tough to reproduce.

I found a clear reflective paint, do you know where it gets applied on the rims?

The inside and out side faces are painted.

I have chrome trim rings on the GT rims.  Are you talking about the non chromed area on the edge of the rim?
Anyone have a flash photo?

Do I understand that you have the chrome styled steel wheels? If so I do not believe that they would be reflective. I have only seen the reflective on the standard argent painted GT wheels.

A friend of mine has a 68 GT Fastback that had black reflective side stripes and black reflective styled steels.

As I said if you have the chrome wheels they will not be reflective, only your stripes. I also believe the only reflective color used on the painted wheels was a argent like color. The wheels did not match the stripes.
