Went to a cruise and saw it today. Approached the owner and he acknowledged it was a stripe delete car - says so right on the data plate! Then he pointed to the 71 71 code. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif

Where on the data plate does it tell you stripe delete?

Re: Post some stripe-delete Z/28s!
 

Man, I'm in love that black '70 Z-28 without the stripes. I'd like it even more if didn't have that Firebird rear spoiler and instead had the small one-year only spoiler. They look so much better with the short one.

I'm not a Camaro guy, but I don't think there's a stripe code on Camaros. What he was pointing out as monotone was actually for the roof and body. A two-tone car or a car with vinyl top would not have the repeated paint code.

wow, it is also the rare rear bumper guard delete "option" too ....

Re: Post some stripe-delete Z/28s!
 

I assume bumper guards were not standard, so I don't know where the sarcasm is coming from? Or am I missing something?

Re: Post some stripe-delete Z/28s!
 

I believe bumper guards were standard on all 69 Z/28's.

Re: Post some stripe-delete Z/28s!
 

It is possible that "- -" would indicate stripe delete for 69 and possibly up to 71. Then in 72 trim tags were coded to reflect striping. My 72 Z28 was Mulsanne Blue with blue interior and coded DX3 = Stripe Delete. Also a no spoiler car.. Hoping I'll get this car back some day, Joe? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif

simply following your lead was all my post was about https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif

all solid lifter Z28's (67-72) came standard with the "optional" rear bumper guards ...

so did the stripes

as you have already pointed out his trim tag did not indicate a stripe delete car, it merely pointed out the color of the car

Re: Post some stripe-delete Z/28s!
 

Wasn't aware bumper guards were part of the package. Why did they do that?
