73-87 roofs were never ALL white, unless it was an all wite truck. The front pillars and front of the door were the other color...see the two examples above.

Shouldn't be too hard to imagine.

The difference is pre-73 doors had a 2pc shell so there was a 'hard-line' that made it easy to break up the different colors. Post-73 doors have 1pc shells so you need something to help separate the 2 colors (pinstripe, etc....).

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
