A little help needed before we can make any recommendations. What color is the interior? Looks like the body is a single color.
 
What color interior?

If black interior I would go with black, white interior, white interior and green interior, would do a darker green or a cream, gold or black

My 2 CENTS

Like the color
 
Stripe delete!!!..... Once you get the chrome on and the tires nice and black, i don't think a stripe will add anything to the look...jmo.

If it's a must, a thin black pin just under the belt line may work?

X2 put a "forget the stripe" up to vote on
 
Black IF you want a stripe :coffee2: I do like that color 8)
 
Certain theme you are wanting? Like a retro car, or more original factory like or you just making it whatever u like? I say forget the stripe nice thing with stripes they can always be added.......
 
Since you're talking about just a thin pinstripe, I'd go with a lighter shade of green as an accent. I don't think a black pinstripe will do much since the green body color is fairly dark. The only other color that, IMO, may work would be a silver to play off of aluminum/chrome wheels.
Just my opinion, but I think a pinstripe has to both accent and compliment existing colors. I don't think either red, gold, or orange stripes would do anything to compliment your existing color combo.
 
If it were mine and I thought about stripes, I would probably consider a darker shade of green, that would be very subtle.
 
Had a darker green 69 Charger SE that was pinstriped in black. From 20 ft you didn't really see it, but up close it looked GREAT. Was a skeleton design and everything was lined

Really I would finish the car and if you decide you want a stripe and are having a pro pin stripe it let him test a few colors to see what you think looks best.

Silver or gold would look good on that green
 
If anything black I guess. I wouldn't do one if it was me. Nice Color!!!
