Factory pinstripe/ w lower moldings?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Was the factory pinstripe available on a truck with lower moldings?

Thanks,
Ray

I didn't realize these trucks came from the factory with pin striping...

Always learning something new.

The D96 paint stripe was available with a few exclusions but could be had with lower body moldings ('72 shown).

I was going to say yes, and that mu buddy Joesjunk has one, but ss tim already posted a pic of it.

I haven't seen many myself. Mostly you will see them on original paint trucks, very rare to see a restored/repainted truck with them put back on. I have only seen a few myself, but they were on lower option trucks without the lower moldings.

Thanks for the info!

my mostly original paint 70 has both.

SS Tim · 05-31-2012, 04:34 PM

Here is another picture that shows the factory stripe to good effect. Are the specs for this in anyone's assembly manual? Mine is currently hiding from me to check.

Ozark Tim · 05-31-2012, 05:45 PM

Yes you could get both as pictured by someone else.
Here is mine, no lower molding but factory painted pin stripes.

Here's a pinstripe on a pretty original 71 and a 70's SPID.

That sure looks like the other side of Ozark Tim's truck! Does anyone have a good picture of the lettering?

I was thinking the same too myself before I saw your post

This truck had original paint, but we added the lower trim.

Well done! It nicely ties the two tone paint.

BLAZERMAN · 05-31-2012, 11:25 PM

Yep, my 68 has the factory stripe with lower moulding.

**special-K** · 06-01-2012, 06:48 AM

I had a '69 K/10 CST Custom Camper in Maroon Poly w/Silver pinstripe and Red bucket seat interior. So,that was one from factory with pinstripe and lower trim.

SS Tim · 06-02-2012, 10:00 PM

Found a factory picture of a nice looking truck.

**70cst** · 06-02-2012, 10:10 PM

Thanks for the pics of the Pin Striping. Something I didn't realize

factorystock · 06-02-2012, 11:48 PM

Depending on exterior color, pinstripe could be black also.

House13 · 06-03-2012, 01:44 AM

Here is the SPID from my old '70 with Paint Stripe upper and wide lower molding...
