The v1x black r/t side stripe on 1970 challengers.
Were they gloss or flat black when they were new?
Thanks

Matte black - BTW - if you are looking to purchase some, I repop them. Price is $75 incl shipping within the USA.

Gary do you sell the hood decals as well? I'm going to need both for a black challenger convertible that I'm going to do us soon. If so give me a price on both plus shipping.

Sorry but I do not do the hood-black out. My equipment is not big enough (no pun intended). I do however include the hood pin-stripe R/T with the side stripes.

Hey guys, I ended up painting on the longitudial stripes and hood treatment. The factory hood treatment (V21)and side stripes (V6X) do not match (gloss-level) and always threw me off. I painted all the same ditzler paint/gloss level as the bumblebee stripes. A pain in the rear to work the details but she's a true match.

I would have thought the original stripes from the factory were gloss black like 70 Cuda's ?

71 Challenger were gloss black. 70's were matte. Also, the 70 Cuda Hockey Sticks were actually matte black as well.

Gloss black? Really? Guess you'll find that out Wednesday.

Both 70 and 71 Challengers have gloss stripes. They would be V6X, not V1X.

T/As had matte stripes though.

Picture referencing the appropriate level of gloss for 70 Challenger stripes, regardless of color...

What is the verdict for 70/71 V6X black logitudinal body stripe from the factory? (Matte/Semi/Gloss) .

I know the hood treatment V21 is flat... I see that some repro mfgr's offer both - really confusing one.

I just ordered a set of 70 challenger side stripes from Gary as well and went with the matte black stripe as I want it to stick out on a gloss black car.
