Topic: 1967 GT Stripe Dimensions (Early San Jose Cars)

[RoyceP]

This is obviously a very old topic but I just wanted to update the information. It's not unique to San Jose. We are having the identical same problem on a Dearborn built 390GT fastback that left the line (scheduled) on October 31, 1966.


Very frustrating, we are likely going to have the paint shop apply painted stripes of the correct original dimensions to solve this.


Here's how it looked with an NOS Ford stripe kit:

Good looking car!

He bought it from the original owner in 1980. That guy special ordered the car with the black paint, 4 speed, GT package, 390, and originally it had the black exterior, black deluxe interior with both consoles, disc / drum brakes, and no air conditioning or power steering. In Dallas, TX a black car with no A/C and no power anything (except power brakes).


We had it repainted in 1994 and it just needed a bit of touch up and a new stripe kit this month. Too bad the vendors don't offer one that fits.
