Pin Stripe

[Slinger53]

Getting ready to add the pin stripe on my truck cab. Does anyone have pictures or instructions of where the original pin stripe should be located? I have a general idea, but Iwould like to get it right the first time!

These old time photos will give you a pretty good idea.

Those are Movie stills , non ? .

Interesting how all the glass has been shaded .

Photos show the beltline stripe as originally applied. Maybe the original poster found their answer elsewhere?

Wonder what happened to "ol' chebby", AKA Russ, no posts in a long time.
I could not get his home page link to work, either.

Wonder about "Sinclair Chevy", Damon, also...

That's a very good stripe tutorial rons50, thanks! But I have never known the stripe to be anything but below the wiper bezels. I've heard tell though that the stripe could differ in placement depending on which factory it came from. I found a photo of a truck still wearing its original paint job and the stripe appears to be below the bezels just as my truck once was.

Sorry I haven't been here in a while....my laptop crapper out and my phone doesn't always work on here.
The stripe should be below center of the belt line, through the bottom of the wiper bezels. Check my tech thread about this.

No kidding... Russ, I missed your annual update on Goodguys, Charlotte. We like to see whatever project your working on. We've looked at Dune Buggies, Jeeps, Tractors, Lawnmowers, anything cool. We even have a new section for garages, and tools, and garage art! Right up your alley!
