Hockey stick stripes

Anonymous · Post by **Anonymous** » Sun Feb 05, 06 7:43 pm

Hi guys,

I'm trying to find out whether my car came with hockey stick stripes from new? (1970 383 'cuda).

Should there be a code on the fender tag, or did all 'cudas come with these stripes as standard?

Post a pic of the fender tag and we will let you know it depends on location on the tag as well as code

About to get shot down, but I thought they came with them but could have a delete option - I know '71's could be "Billboard Delete"... i await to be corrected.

I think you are correct, but did THAT car come delete....

Thanks Alex, Pete.

Right, here goes - not too sure how the pic will turn out, so here's a copy of the tag just in case:

END
N41 N42 N85 R11 26
J25 J45 M21 M25 M31 M88
EB5 A62 C16 C55 G33 H51
EB5 H6B5 000 B19 043329
E63 D32 BS23 N0E xxxxxx

I've heard conflicting reports, but as far as I can tell there's no Vxx code to show a stripe, nor is there a 'stripe delete' code?

No stripe, nice options though !

No stripe delete code either. So the stripe was not standard?

My Cuda didn't come with a hockey stripe either. Mine came originally with a horrible side moulding (V5W) Yuk! (that didn't get included when the car was restored.)

V6W would have been a white hockey stripe, - except Mopar never offered a hockey stripe in white, - only V6X:- black.

But why not put a hockey stripe on it anyway? I see your car is EB5, one of my favourite colours. It would look brilliant with a black hockey stripe. I would.

Thanks again, all.

I'm definitely tempted with the stripes as I do think they accent the bodyline nicely. This was a half-hypothetical, half-'shall I do it?' kind of question!

I'll have to have a think on this some more...

Pete, where on the buildsheet will I see the ' Billboard delete ' . Do they always mention that?
cheers, Roel
