Randy, The car looks great. My Montreaux Blue 67 has a double, white pinstripe. I like it. I think the stripe on your car looks real good. The stripe accents the body line,shortens the length, adds to the coke bottle waist,and makes the body look stronger.... I would leave it. Eric

I like it and i like mine. I say keep it.
Mine looks almost the same:

I think color has a lot to do with how pin stripes look. The pin stripes on the white looks very nice. I don't know if I would put them on a red Goat, but the white, definetly.

How much did it cost you to have them painted on? Or did you do it yourself?

I met a guy who had a booth set up at the Goodguys Car show. He charged me $90 and after watching him I think I could do the next strip job.

Did he do it free hand? Or did he use a stencil?
I don`t think I could free hand it, I can`t draw a straight line on paper.

He used 1/2" masking tape as a guide and free handed the actual pinstripe. I read in one of the body manuals the top of the pinstripe is 5/16" below the lower crease.

Painted on would be sweet. I have just the tape style pinstripe and the waxxes and polishes tend to get stuck to the edges of the stripe making it hard to look clean. I asked the paint guy to put it under the clear coat, but he wouldn`t.
