Looking for photos and info on V7W pinstripe #588444 01/20/10 02:24 PM 01/20/10 02:24 PM

We're close to putting the stripe on my RR Vert and could really use a few photos or just info on what a factory '69 V7W pinstripe should look like. Main questions are is it a single or double pinstripe and how far below the body line should it be, what do the two ends look like and how far forward and rearward does it go? Any photos or answers would be most appreciated. 69 Road Runner Convertible

I am not a guru but I believe the "V7" means the thin stripe, (like a pin stripe, which I have) and the "R" has got to mean red, which is the color my stripe is, I'll assume yours it coded for a thin (V7) white stripe (W)as an aside, and again at the risk of the "wrong police" jumping on me I heard that the thin stripes were placed on the car via two wheels on the assembly line after paint. my car is up for the winter but I can make a trip to the shop within the next couple days and take all the pics you need if someone doesn't have them at hand. my car is about 85% original so it should be a good reference.

I have a '69 RR door with what I believe is original paint and pinstripe that will help to a certain degree. I sure would like to see how and where the stripe terminates on the fender and quarter as well as how the ends look! I will post my pinstripe from the door previously mentioned and perhaps you could comment on if it is correct or not. I am assuming it is but you never know. Thanks

There must not be that many originals floating around I guess. I'm really looking forward to seeing photos of a correct original pinstripe and keep the detail info coming. Thanks! 69 Road Runner Convertible

I joined the 69roadrunner.net site back when Marcus was doing it, I had a bunch of pictures of the pinstriping of my RR on that site but they were lost when they had server issues. I am surprised that no one else has chimed in, I know i am not the only one with V7R code pinstripe.

I do have a door that came as a spare with my project that is said to have been from a 69 RR. I thought the stripe was correct but upon further scrutiny, looks to be tape. Pix included. WannaRunner, Does this look like the right style,size, placement etc as your RR? 5750088-stripe6.jpg (157 downloads)

WannaRunner, Does this look like the right style,size, placement etc as your RR? That is not a factory stripe. The V7 stripe is paint not tape and is closer to the top body line. The V6 stripe is tape but much wider. I will see if I have any pictures and post them later. Mike
