That's it.  My wife's car is exactly like it but has a blue handpainted accent stripe and without that funky looking trim down the side. It's a 383 car and was part of a lot of 12 cars prepared by Plymouth to be forced on dealers as part of a promotional gimmick pushing the ill-fated ModTop.
Have you had any luck with the picture of your wifes car yet, you have me interested. "accented stripe" does anyone else know what he means or have pictures.

option code is V7B longitudinal paint stripe. B for blue, W for white etc. V6B would be the blue tape stripe. I havent gotten over yet to get any pictures, I will soon as I have to move the car, but this is one I took as I was cataloging things I was getting ready to move out.You can just see the stripe on the left front fender, it is a single stripe perhaps 3/16" at it's widest and tapered to a point at the front and rear.

I don't have a Mod and may never but if it were reasonably price I would probably buy a top just to have and add one more body to your list, anything for the hobby. There use ot be a Satelite in town, I should probably track down.
Careful, your character's showing!

Legendary have taken on reproducing new Gator Grain material (which i have already requested a sample of)
Once you get the sample, can you please start a new thread about it? Lots of folks need Gator. 
Thanks,

Is that the Canadian 4spd Dart? Yes that's the Canadian 4 speed Dart. Out of Barrie ,Ontario. He bought that car out of the auto trader or the iSell or something like that , the guy selling had a black top on the car . Apparently he had no idea it was a mod top car. Or may not of had any idea what a mod top was for that matter. So Rich bought it and did a total restoration himself. Did a beautiful job I might add. The 340 in it came from me, I sold it too him many years ago and it ended up in that Dart. Dave.

Are these painted on free hand like Kingy said ? or are they masked-up and painted ? 
(ref: Roadrunner painted stripes)...
they appeared to me to have been hand striped with a Beugler striping tool... they had evidence of "track marks" where the stripe was worn thin. The Beugler tool has a round wheel with a side-to-side "tread".

Hello Steven,
I have recieved an e-mail from another Moparts member who said that he has talked with Legendary. And even though it has not yet been offically released they plan on having Mod Top material available at the same time as the Gator Grain material in 90 days......... Aledgedly.
Stay tuned for more information and confirmation. Things are looking up, i really hope that Legendary have stepped up to the plate once again to help out the Mopar Brethrin.

All Dodge Floral Tops are green and as far as I know only came on F6 cars. There was no matching interior for them.
Hi KISS Wonder if any Black Darts were made with the Green Mod Top Food for thought........ The old 69 Dart may have to go Black just to get a Green Mod Top just for kicks......... HA HA
