C3 Racing Stripe pics
Hello all, I am in the process of getting my 77 stripped down and painted. My plan is to keep it the original dark metallic silver color but I was thinking of adding a metallic burnt orange stripe down the middle possibly with a L88 hood (for better air cleaner fitment). Anyone have a pic of a C3 with a stripe (not hash marks)
Thanks
Steve

I'm thinking about a C5 Lemans Commerative style stripe on my 68 when I get to the paint part of the project. Something like my current car or the gone but not forgotten 92 in the background.

Maybe it's the blue on white color combination that makes this really work. And the unusual swipe of the stripes over the car. Very tastefully done. Love it.
