Stripe Delete JL8 Z28

Per a supervisor on the Ford assembly lines in the '60s and '70s: You kept the line going but couldn't downgrade a part. An example he gave was that it was OK to put a large battery tray (and even a larger HD battery) into a car if you ran out of small battery trays, but you couldn't put a small battery tray into a car that was supposed to be fitted with a large one. Another example would be to put a nicer steering wheel into a base model car, but not vice versa. I would think that a black vs. argent grille would be considered an equivalent part that would be an acceptable substitute (not requiring rework) if GM had a similar policy.
