Yep, 440+6 with an air grabber. One sweet car!

I've seen that car before and was wondering about the stripe. My car had a stripe onit like that, but it was thicker. It looked like a 74 stripe on a 71, but it wasn't. Anybody know anything about these stripes, or did everybody just think the starsky and hutch theme looked good before I was born?

Actually I did like it-wish I would've painted it back on when I had the car painted.

They did a lot of strange things in the 70s. BTW, all the factory stripes were vinyl, not painted on (except the 71 GTX pinstripes)

I honestly don't know if mine was vinyl or painted on-I think it was painted, but I stripped my car, so it all kind of looked like vinyl, you know what I mean? I just figured paint would be a lot easier and maybe cheaper than vinyl-like the taillight stripes. Straight shot (basically around the taillights-lot easier(for me)than vinyl. I couldn't get my Plymouth decal on the front right, or else my graphic was bad, cuz the top one is right on, but the bottom letters aren't centered. Luckily, the 440's on the sides went on perfect!

The tail light blackout stripes are a HUGE pain to get on right, especially when the bumper is already mounted on the car. I always spray a little glass cleaner before mounting the stripe. It allows you to move it around some to get it just right.

Try using a spray bottle (12-16 oz) with 5-10 drops of dish soap. That will give you plenty of time to slide it around before committing.

Now How about the 68 Charger in "Blade" WOOOOOMMMMMBAAAAHHHHH.!!!!!!!!

I've tried the dish soap and water too and find the glass cleaner to work better for me.

Oh yea I forgot about the Blade charger!

Speaking of the 71 RR in the Vanishing Point remake, I remember seeing the actual car used in the movie for sale in Hemmings. The asking price at the time was $18,000 in California. I never heard about it since seeing that ad.
