SS hood stripes
Dose any one have pictures of hood stripes on their trucks? I'm thinking of doing a set on mine and was looking for ideas. I was thinking of the 69 camaro look with a 2" hood scoop. Thanks for any Ideas. Woody

Re: SS hood stripes
I'm planning on doing Chevelle style stripes on my project with a slant nose cowl hood. The Chevelle has the truncated stripe vs. the Camaro that goes off the front edge.

Re: SS hood stripes
Not my truck, but it has some well done stripes. FWIW, I really do think the Chevelle style stripes look much better with the hood/body lines of these trucks rather than the 'chopped' look of the Camaro stripes.

I thought Eddie (the truck I showed) should've stopped the stripes at the crease. But,on this silver truck,with slightly narrower pattern,I think it would look good as one solid patch (not divided)

Eddie's truck has the blank tailgate. I think he should've done a black panel between the lights with a narrow border stripe around it

Re: SS hood stripes
Thanks Guys. I have been thinking about the rally stripes for awhile. Just looking for some ideas on how to finish them on the front of the hood.

Re: SS hood stripes
Not for me... they belong on Camaros, Chevelles, and ElCaminos.

Re: SS hood stripes
I like the look of the stripes that stop before the crease on the hood. Anyone have a pic of the stripes without the tapper? It's alot to ask I know. thanks for the help all.

Re: SS hood stripes
Here are some I did on my old 90 that I sold recently. Just messing around one day with a can of satin white spray paint and some 1/4 inch pinstriping.

I did them like a 70-72 Chevelle.
