That looks like 427 King's old Camaro.
Some people here may know the car.

That hockeystick is awfully thick. Hopefully it's just a stick on and can be easily corrected. Funny, you never see a hockeystick stripe that's too thin. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif

Thanks, Ive been staring at them thinking the same thing...I think I may pass on this car at this point, just too many small and maybe bigger issues...

Both cars you linked appear correct... As does the blue car in the above post... Black stripes have a tendency to appear "thinner" than white, its an optical illusion because the white is bolder against the body color. Compare any of those 3 cars against the orange one inthe first post and you should easily be able to see the difference... the orange one has a WAY thick stripe. Btw...Original stripes are painted on the fender, and a decal on the door... this was due to the body being painted separately from the front end.

That one has a "way too fat" stripe on it too...personally, i like the fathom green one the best of the 4 you have posted thusfar...just need to ditch the polyglases for a set of wide treads and you'd be in business... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif
