I got this 72 a few months ago from a good friend. It’s a great car and lots of fun with the 440 of course! I am on the fence with the stripe. The friend I got it from put it on about 4 years ago. The car was hardly driven that year, then sat covered in his garage for 3 years due to a back injury until I got it. So there shouldn’t be any real fade to the paint. I don’t know if I should leave it off or put the correct style on it for the year. I don’t mind the ‘69 year stripe, but it just looks “off”. My buddy who built the car back about 17 years ago never had a stripe on it and I thought it looked good, but maybe too much green without it?
