As far as I know Chevrolet never put rally stripes on the roof! Thats a Ford thing! So I guess you go both ways even more than you thought.

Well it's kind of hard to put stripes on the hood when I don't have one. It would have looked really dumb if I just put them on the trunk.

Flat black needs to be done with a flattening agent in the clear. Very hard to do it right, so I hear. I'd like to try it sometime.

Who cares? Chevy never did a flat black Chevelle either. It's an aesthetic thing.

And, Ford used 7.5" stripes, while Ron used 7" stripes, so it is very clearly not a Ford thing.

Actually, I'll have to measure because I don't remember how wide I made them. It was a long time ago.

No you can just use spray paint. Oh wait, you said do it right. My bad.

Haha, I was just trying to make a point. It's not like you were going after some Ford theme, you just put uh... racing stripes on the car.

Que? Why vaseline instead of just taping windows off? Is it somehow easier or am I missing something altogether here?
