I seen the black and orange at Carlisle .That was around the time I had heard about the orange not be available{surviver questionable in my mind ..looked hard at it }. My car is a black stripe delete {with R/T fender badge } .In the past I tried white but car looked too "skunky" the orange flourescent looked good I wouldn`t mine trying it for awhile if it was available as OEM.I know red is available by aftermarket. Thanks

All longitudinal sport stripes on Challengers were decals, regardless of year. White with white stripe and black with black stripe cars are known to exist for 1971. And as I mentioned I have some info on two V6J cars for 1971. Both of them are Green Go, though the stripes could be had on black cars too with the right interior color.

I know the car you mean. I believe it's out of NY. I probably had the same questions. I'd have to look at my notes but I don't think the stripes are called out on the fender tag of that car. But it's on the window sticker I think. Can't remember all the details.

So they can do whatever you want if they have the right pattern. I'd be worried about figuring out the original color of the Orange stripe. I'd think that color would fade easy on original cars (if there is an original car with the sticker still on it). Seems all the new repro stripes are thinner than originals.

I had a place mix the color for the vinyl and had it sent to Gary for cutting it. Since then I believe phoenix graphic started selling the color. 68 Road Runner, 69 Belvedere, 71 Challenger Vert 340 barracuda, 01 Ram CTD, 95 Ram, 04 Ram, 85 Daytona turbo Z 66 GTO, 06 Magnum RT AWD. 07 Ram CTD, 07 Ram
