Default Re: 69 Nova inspection stripe

Bill I see 2 stripes on the side of the frame rail. My 68 L79 had 2 stripes. I thought they might be some sort of witness mark for bumper bracket bolts. I worked in an automotive factory building steering columns and every bolt that was torqued down had a witness mark on it. But why the line and not just mark the bolt head is what puzzling. Also why only the driver side? I would just duplicate what you have found not what everyone else has done. That is where people go wrong IMHO with witness mark restorations.

My survivor 1969 SS nova has 2 orange stripes on the drivers side also. maybe the 68 and early 69 cars got 2 stripes (11B). I mostly saw just one orange stripe on the drivers side.
